Description of problem:
adding meaningless includes to program causes linker to
compile c++ program with exception handling incorrectly
bug reported on both 7.1 and 7.2beta2 as well but when downgrading binutils
to 2.2.10 the problem disappear
Note:This program is done by students here at the university
so I'm not sure about it's copyrights

3.

Comment 2 Jakub Jelinek 2001-10-17 06:41:58 EDT

This has nothing to do with the linker (plus I'm not aware of binutils 2.2.10).
Instead of printing Ill for ex. test.cpp should print ilfe.getMessage() so
that you'd know txt1 has a missing = in it.

Comment 3 elylevy 2001-10-17 12:32:04 EDT

1] binutils 2.10.0.18-1 comes with redhat 7.0

2]txt1 was supposed to cause exception
  in one case - it caught(with binutils 2.10)
  in second doesn't (win binutils 2.11)
  and program aborted
