Re: i386-stub.c patch, remove exceptionHook cruft.

   But what code there was required the user to define the exceptionHook
   variable even though it would never be used.  Since none of the other
   stubs support such a hook, and I haven't needed anything like it in
   the time I've been using the i386 stub, I decided to simply remove it.

	   * i386-stub.c (exceptionHook, oldExceptionHook): Removed.
	   (handle_exception): Removed #if'd out exception hook code.

Unlike the previous patch, this gives me a slight pang of "well, can't
we just finish implementing it?".  But someone will probably have to
do it from scratch anyway, the old code more likely to be misleading
than helpful, so out it comes.
