Unfortunately compiling with -fno-exceptions isn't always an option and
adding a dummy "int _impure_ptr;" declaration as was done in strace does not
work always work.  Even the simple eh_hello.cpp I wrote up will GP if you
try this.  I have also compiled and linked against Mumit's ming-extras
package it still dies.

I feel like the great white bug hunter.  "Dr. Livingston, I presume?"  

Which brings the following sick story to mind,
http://www.qnx.com/~glen/deadbeef/3821.html.  It is gross and disgusting.
You have been warned.
