>Description:
Even the most simple trow/catch programs appear to crash in the __cxa_* functions.  this appears to be at least part of the problem with OpenEXR.
>How-To-Repeat:
The following simple program crashes with the following backtrace:

(gdb) r
Starting program: /home/admin/a.out 
start
Inside try block
Caught an exception -- value is: 99

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x0000000040396aac in __cxa_end_catch () from /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6
(gdb) bt
#0  0x0000000040396aac in __cxa_end_catch () from /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6
#1  0x0000000000100f38 in main () at test.cpp:13


// A simple exception handling example.
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
  std::cout << "start\n";
try
{   // start a try block
    std::cout << "Inside try block\n";
    throw 99; // throw an error
    std::cout << "This will not execute";
  }

catch (int i)
 {   // catch an error
    std::cout << "Caught an exception -- value is: ";
    std::cout << i << "\n";
  }

  std::cout << "end";

  return 0;
}
