> Well, I'm saying two things. First, it is not clear to me what the expected behavior of that code is under the standard. The fact that it appears to work in one particular implementation is not in any way conclusive; we have to look at the specification.
Aha, I had thought it worked on "both Clang and GCC," but now I see that Godbolt uses libsupc++ for both Clang and GCC (and that's where the issue is). Switching to a branch that uses libc++abi, I see that libc++abi just calls `std::terminate` in this situation: https://godbolt.org/z/4s8aMvr3K
> Second, I think it only appears to work: looking at the runtime code in both libc++abi and libsupc++, it leaks the memory of the exception object, which it's clearly not allowed to do. You should be able to fairly easy prove that by looking at heap usage if you do it in a loop.
Yep, memory leak confirmed. (Via the same Godbolt: https://godbolt.org/z/4s8aMvr3K ) So okay, never mind me.
