As far as kde2 goes, I've run into the problem for a beta of kde2 (1.95),
where exception handling was not disabled yet, if memory serves right...
I've rechecked that kcontrol/background/bgsettings.cpp does compile fine
with exception handling disabled, in kde 2.0.
qt2 still has the problem. qrichtext.cpp is that major offender. It goes
over 200MB to compile with sjlj.
I've noticed it because I tried to use dwarf2 under OpenBSD (not quite
finished yet) and memory usage went down drastically on that specific file.
