[PATCH 2/2] Cygwin: strace: ignore GCC exceptions

Ken Brown kbrown@cornell.edu

Any C++ app that calls 'throw' on 64-bit Cygwin results in an
exception of type STATUS_GCC_THROW (0x20474343) generated by the C++
runtime.  Don't pollute the strace output by printing information
about this and other GCC exceptions.
