mmmhh.....havent check all the kde code....but isnt it free of exception
checking (as it does code bigger and slower doesnt it ?? )....and i guess not
all compilers have the -fno-check-new and -fno-exceptions like g++, so if
there isnt exception checking what happens ? the program just crashes ???
wouldnt be a good idea to set a function handler in the kdelibs maybe or a
handler apropiated for each app ??
Greetings....
