exceptions in shared library

[ING GmbH]

I have a problem if I throw an exception in shared library and catch it in
main-program. I've written a small piece of code which shows it:


//this is my shared library shared.cxx
//to compile: g++ -Wall -shared -o shared.so shared.cxx
extern "C" void ffshared()
{
  throw 123;
}



//and this is my main-program main.cxx
//to compile: g++ -Wall -o sharedtest main.cxx -ldl
#include <stream.h>
#include <dlfcn.h>
int main()
{
void* libHandle = dlopen("shared.so", RTLD_LAZY);
void* fHandle = dlsym(libHandle, "ffshared");
void (*pf)() = (void(*)())fHandle;

try{
  pf();
} catch (int i){
  cout << "catched "<<i<<"\n";
}
}


If I compile it all with gcc 2.91.66 it works. But if I use 2.95.2 the program
aborted with "Memory access error" after the exception is thrown.
Is it a bug in 2.95.2? Or there is a compiler-option which I should to set?
