Sigh. Yes, I do know about the problem, and I was being quiet hoping 
nobody would bring it up ;-)

If it makes you feel any better, a few other platforms are affected by 
this as well (HPUX for example), where throwing exceptions from shared 
libraries are not caught. 

It's somewhat low on my priority list, so let's hope someone out there
is looking into it.
