 For me exceptions cannot be caught after that change. The installed
 routine in QGIS is called, but then it terminates. It seems, that a
 function in a library in C cannot be interrupted by calling a function in
 C++ which throws an exception. Wasn't used setjmp/longjmp to solve it?

 I just verified that it works as expected on Windows.  I'll try on linux
 in the evening.
