 Patch (uses code from gentoo eclass)

+The patch uses a test program from the gentoo eutils eclass (so
+copyright gentoo.org, GPL v2) to determine whether glibc is NPTL and
+if so does not put -fexceptions into CFLAGS. As mono is in C,
+-fexceptions is not needed anyway. This maybe should be converted into
+an autoconf test program.
+
+wrt the wider issue, I feel
+http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2004-01/msg01766.html is likely to be
+relevant. Reading up on it now.
