>Description:
Using the current gcc trunk, when I attempt to compile a
file including <iostream.h> with -fno-exceptions, I get
the error:

In file included from /usr/local/gcc-trunk/include/g++-v3/bits/std_ios.h:41,
                 from /usr/local/gcc-trunk/include/g++-v3/bits/std_ostream.h:37,                 from /usr/local/gcc-trunk/include/g++-v3/bits/std_iostream.h:38,
                 from /usr/local/gcc-trunk/include/g++-v3/iostream.h:31,
                 from test.cpp:2:
/usr/local/gcc-trunk/include/g++-v3/bits/localefwd.h: In member function `void 
   std::locale::_Impl::_M_remove_reference()':
/usr/local/gcc-trunk/include/g++-v3/bits/localefwd.h:359: exception handling 
   disabled, use -fexceptions to enable
>How-To-Repeat:
Create a simple C++ file with:

#include <iostream.h>
int main() { return 0; }

and compile with

g++ -fno-exceptions <filename>
