  My experiance with gcc and exception handling is that it does not work. The
code is "there" but does not seem to be functional. I spent some time trying to
write a working exception program, then spent some time debugging gcc, to no
avail.

  I spent some time talking to other people, and my understanding that exception
handling does not currently work :(

    Cheers,
