I seem to remember seeing something about exceptions a month or two
back, that takes effect in GNAT 3.03 or 3.04. I think I heard that
the exception handling has been sped up significantly, just about to
the point of no penalty for a non-taken exception. I'd wait for more
authoritative word on this one, though. It still might be worth
checking out.
