 Just FYI: I recently saw a link to experimental 4.3.2 packages available
on http://www.tdragon.net/recentgcc/index.php in a post to wx-users and it
seems like the exception handling problem is solved now, see "usage notes"
paragraph.

 I didn't try to build neither wxWidgets nor LMI with this compiler but I'd
be curious to do it. It should be much faster as this version is supposed
to have functional PCH support (of course, this won't help with LMI until I
end working on PCH patch for it...).
