exception code

When throwing an exception in C++, the application is supposed to abort, unless
the exception had been catched. This is usually done inside blocks (functions,
classmethods, etc).

The attached code throws an exception derived from std::runtime_error, causing
the application to exit.

when running this on Linux, the output is similar to:
    terminate called after throwing an instance of 'Exception'
      what():  some awful error occured
    Aborted

and the errorcode ($?) is set to "134". However, when compiling the code with
mingw and running it with wine, the application exists silently with no visible
sign of a thrown exception; the only thing that indicates an error is the
variable "$?" which is set to "3".

As I don't think this is expected behaviour, I have reported it as a Bug.

To compile "except.cpp", use this command:
    wine C:/MinGW/bin/g++.exe except.cpp -o except.exe
