[PATCH] libstdc++: Fix exceptions being generated when compiling with -fno-exceptions

When the libstdc++ is compiled, the compiler sets the std::terminate_handler function with __verbose_terminate_handler() or std::abort() depending on _GLIBCXX_HOSTED && _GLIBCXX_VERBOSE being true or false.

However, even if we compile with -fno-exceptions, the compiler will use __verbose_terminate_handler(), which uses exceptions. Therefore, the library is not fully exception-free.

This patch adds a check for __EXCEPTIONS to the #if _GLIBCXX_HOSTED && _GLIBCXX_VERBOSE condition. If __EXCEPTIONS is defined, the compiler will use __verbose_terminate_handler() as a termination function; otherwise it'll use std::abort() which doesn't have exceptions. It also makes std::uncaught_exception() throw() return false if __EXCEPTIONS is not defined.

2015-04-14  Federico Lenarduzzi  <federico.lenarduzzi@tallertechnologies.com>

	* libsupc++/eh_catch.cc (std::uncaught_exception() throw()): Add an #else
	which returns false if __EXCEPTIONS is not defined.
	* libsupc++/eh_term_handler.cc: Add a check for __EXCEPTIONS to the #if.
