In version 2.8.1 just released it seems to work. Atleast I have compiled
code that used exceptions without the -fsjlj-exceptions switch and
everything worked as expected.  So I think it works by now, and that is
good if they are faster or more efficient or something, becuase it has to
be something since it is the default switch.
