Because other 'C compilers' may choose to implement good GNUC extensions.
icc already has all that's needed to compile linux kernel for example.
(although producing EH in reallity implies that there's C++ around
somewhere)

Anyway, I'd like *at least* to work with gcc-core. At the moment,
gcc-core-3.4 is enough for -fexceptions, cleanups and the unwind.h
library. There's no way lwc can depend on C++!
