> Hello,

> Sorry if this was reported before, but I can't use ANSI-like exception

> I'm using gcc 2.1 on an ESIX System 5.3.2 Rev.D. My configuration is

> Everytime I try to use a simple "throw;" with the following command line
> g++ -fansi-exceptions -c foo.c
> the compiler dumps core.

> The pain is that I really want this exception handling to run.  I
