Hi,

it seems like the C++ problem of b16 still remains in b17.
That means it is impossible to build a c++ program
using exceptions (or even containing an object file that is
compiled with the -fexceptions option). You can reproduce
the problem with the following sample:

/* file hello.cc */
#include <stdio.h>
int main() { printf("Hello, world\n"); return 0; }
/* end of hello.cc */

$ gcc -c -fexceptions hello.cc
$ gcc -o hello.exe hello.o -lstdc++
$ hello
bash: ./hello.exe: not owner
$ 

The old compiler option -fhandle-exceptions doesn't work either.
All that works fine with b14. Does anybody have any ideas?
