That would require some actual modules written in C++ that illustrate the 
disasters of allowing exceptions to propagate into C code, which I presume would 
be some work.

I briefly looked into this and though I am by no means a C++ expert it appears 
that we went over the edge of the standard on that one, so in commit 
552694a2653b4f9cde515139d01793a5a0e964b7 I reverted both changes and moved the 
problematic typedef out of the public .h file (where it would just be a bug 
magnet anyway, apparently) and into our private .c file.
