Re: Using exceptions in the core

jwe,

More convincing evidence that this is the way to go.  There is an obscure
bug where a uicontrol object (button) with a callback function that calls
error() can produce a segfault
(https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?46038).  With your exception patch
applied it no longer segfaults.  I wouldn't want to try and debug where in
the old code the error_state variable was not getting checked correctly.
