I am trying to enable exception handling in the 'c' library so we can throw
an exception from a signal handler. I have looked in the archives and
someone accomplished this feat by building the glibc library with the
'-fexceptions' compiler switch turned on.
I am using the default tools that came with Redhat 6.0 distribution, which
are gcc 2.91.66 and bin tools 2.9.1
When I try to build with make CFLAGS='-fexceptions', I get an error that
looks like this:
make -C csu subdir_lib
