Subject: RFC: next/finish/etc -vs- exceptions

This is a refresh of:

    http://www.sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2009-05/msg00635.html

(The thread continues in the following month.)

I rebased the patch and addressed Pedro's comments.

I did not add the user notification that Doug asked for.

This version does work if an exception is thrown from a signal handler.
The included Java test case checks that (on most platforms).

Built and regtested on x86-64 (compile farm).
Tests for the new functionality are included.

I'd appreciate comments.  I don't want to commit this without a review,
as my experience is that I usually err when touching breakpoints or
infrun.

If you want to try this yourself, you will need a new-enough libgcc, one
that includes the necessary debugging hook.
