[ddbg] Catching exceptions

[Bill Baxter]

I'm having trouble debugging a DFL program because DFL wraps its main
loop in a try/catch that puts up a error dialog. If I hit continue on
the dialog it just pops back up again. If I hit cancel on it a fall
back to the ddbg prompt, but 'us' gives nothing.

I asked about it on the DFL forum and Chris said that he hasn't any
trouble debugging using WinDbg because of that.

So could this be a problem with how ddbg handles exceptions that occur
in the debugee?

i think that problem was reported before and i just fixed it. ddbg used
to *handle* exceptions, now it only intercepts them and causes the win32
exception handling mechanism to look for another handler if you continue
the debuggee.
i'm working on finishing the 0.11 atm, so it shouldn't be too long until
i can release it.
