This is at least partially improved by configure.h revision
1.25, which avoids the -fexceptions problem with versions of
GCC that don't support it.

I got the same error on Sun SPARC Solaris 8 with gcc version 3.0.1.

Can you help to resolve this problem?

Are you using a compiler other than GCC?  The configure
script seems to think you're using GCC or the -fexceptions
would not be on the command line.  If you are using GCC,
what version?

I get the same error when trying to compile on FreeBSD
3.4-RELEASE.
