My mainline does the equivalent of the above.
Doesn't help. I'm getting an unhandled exception,
which calls terminate, so the catch(...) isn't relevant.

The error only occurs with -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer.
So I think this is either this is either a bug in g++ or 
in the documentation for failing to specify the above 
combination doesn't work.
