Maybe I am being a little naive about how deep the Octave exception 
handling is used, but from a pretty minimal glance it appears that the 
exception handling is fairly confined as to where exceptions are thrown 
and caught.  Would it be an option to somehow implement a "custom" 
exception handler and avoid C++ exceptions altogether?
