The only documentation for C++ is:
 o C libraries
 o C++ streams
 o the deprecated libgpp library (replaced by STL)

throw and friends are C++ _language_ features; there's no
C or C++ language reference yet in the DJGPP distribution.

The spawn*() family of functions can do a fork/exec but will wait for
the child process to complete.  If you need concurrent execution, look
in FAQ 22.4 for a thread library:
