Hi,

The exception is not handled by the program. In that case "[[noreturn]]
void std::terminate()" is called by the C++-runtime. std::terminate
calls the currently installed std::terminate_handler. The default
std::terminate_handler calls std::abort. After calling std::abort an
implementation defined status is returned to the host environment that
indicates unsuccessful execution.

So basically both programs do the right thing.
