Ada's throw/catch; Was: [RFC] Unexpected automatic language switch- get_frame_language()


Before I start the discussion and maybe cause us to change our
implementation, what is the feeling of the GDB maintainers in
general. Suppose for instance that we would submit our current
implementation for inclusion, would it be approved, or refused?
Right now, here is our change against breakpoint.c relevant to this
functionality:

Given that GDB already has an established generic documented and "working" throw/catch mechanism, I'm not sure that there are advantages to be had in adding a second. While Act would certainly benefit, I don't know that the same can be argued for GDB as a whole.
