>Description:
If user threw exception from terminate(), abort() function should be called. We used following codes to test this feathre by using 64bit g++, but got memory fault at running time
>How-To-Repeat:
Sample Source File: 
===================    
//tmp.cpp

using namespace std;
#include <exception>
struct S {
        int i;
        S() {i=1;}
};

void eh_term(void)
{
        S s;
        throw s;        
}

int main(void)
{
       set_terminate (&eh_term);

        try {
                throw 'a';      
        }
        catch (S) {
        }
        return 0;
}


Test Process:
=============
STEP1: compiling and linking

/opt/cross/bin/powerpc64-linux-g++ tmp.cpp

STEP2: run
a.out

Actual Output:
=============     
rc = 139
Error msg 
Memory fault

Expected Output:
=============== 
rc = 134
Error msg
Abort
