[snipped example of calling virtual functions from a state ctor]

I'm too lazy to look in the standard what exactly is allowed w.r.t calling
virtual functions from ctors, but I'd very much expect that this should work
(since we're *not* calling a function that is potentially overridden in a
derived class).

This has nothing to do with ctors/dtors. You cannot just "goto" another
state inside an action and therefore entry()/exit() wouldn't change anything
here.
FSMs usually do this by posting internal events, boost::fsm is no different
here.
