  I would do for something like

CBEG corba call CEND

#ifdef FAILSAFE
#  define CBEG try{
#  define CEND } catch(...) and the rest
#else
#  define CBEG
#  define CEND
#endif

  This would serve well during development time and then it might be
gradually reduced. I've done this for AT&T - there were other reasons too,
the code had to work with 4 CORBA implementations and all have different
exceptions.
