Details:

I've been using native Objective-C exception handling for a while now (since
GCC 4.0 is out, almost a year) and I've gotten into the situation where it
would be nice for GNUstep itself to use it, so I've made a few changes to
-base and -make to do it.

How it works:

- made -make define the a _NATIVE_OBJC_EXCEPTIONS macro when compiling with
native Objective-C exceptions support.

- changed NSException's header to define NS_DURING and exception-related
macros to use native exceptions in case _NATIVE_OBJC_EXCEPTIONS is defined.

- changed -[NSException raise] to "@throw self:" in case
_NATIVE_OBJC_EXCEPTIONS.

Patches with the details are attached.
