Basically this guy says that exception-safety is hard, and he's perfectly 
right. Nothing new about that. He doesn't say that exceptions sucks or are a 
stupid idea, just that using them isn't trivial.

I have a suggestion : take this Stack class, and make it report or handle 
errors without using exceptions. Then try to imagine what it would be like to 
use that in an non-toy project.
