Is it a bug ?

That's because the implicit constructor defined for A won't ever
throw, that is, it is declared as:

A::A() throw() {}

So no exception handling code is inserted there.  Declaring the
constructor of A as such should help, but I believe access control
should not be performed at that point.  The Nov'97 is not clear about
that.
