Hmm. In our source, it just falls through, with fatal results.
It seems in this case we should just return.
I thought at one time I mentioned we don't seem to have a throw spec on
the definition of these __cxa_vec* routines for the alloc parm?
I assume that's because it wasn't worth the effort or it just wasn't
needed.
