Thanks, Michael.

I get from that that I can enable exceptions for threadweaver without affecting the \
other libraries. This makes my job a lot easier.

If there are any concerns with this, please let me know. Since threadweaver jobs \
execute user code, it needs to at least be able to avoid blowing up. 

Cheers, 

Mirko.
