Re: Problem with ffi/forwardInvocation and exception handling on OpenSolaris

The reason is that I didn't want to litter my code with legacy
constructs like NS_DURING/NS_HANDLER/NS_ENDHANDLER. I'm working on a
commercial multi-server video streaming system which is inteded to be
portable, and clean code is very important. From a purely practical
standpoint, I could try and go back to legacy exceptions, however, I
don't think that that's a very good strategy in the long run, if I plan
to continue support for Solaris in the future. I'd also like Solaris to
be a fully supported platform on GNUstep in the future, so that's why
I'd rather have this problem sorted out earlier than later.
