Comment (by rblazek):

 It seems that we are back at the beginning of this ticket. GRASS developer
 seem to be reluctant to compile with -fexception and using setjmp/longjmp
 was suggested http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/grass-dev/2010-
 January/048086.html

 For curiosity, were there particular problems with setjmp/longjmp?

 In any case, I think  that using exceptions is much better, I don't want
 to return to setjmp/longjmp.
