I was hacking around in the bison files for gcc 2.2.2 and came 
across the comment which said that gcc 2.2.2 supports ANSI
exception handling syntax, but use at your own risk.

Has anyone had any trouble with them?  Are they pretty robust?

Could someone explain to me the syntax and how they work?  I'm
familier with lispish exception handling--is it similar in
concept?

Thank-you kindly, in advance.

  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,
