Suggestion: Exception Support

I suggest that the configure script should be set up so that make will  
build the GSL
library with C++ exception support if possible. (C code must be  
compiled with the flag
-fexceptions under gcc) I've noticed that configure don't turn on this  
flag by default.
(If a c library is NOT compiled with -fexecptions, any exception  
thrown across a c function call
on the stack, will always terminate the application)

outer space.
On congratulations for a fantastic parody, the producer replies :  
"What parody?"
