Yes. The 'invoke' instruction indicates a call which can return either  
via the normal return sequence or by throwing an exception.

Different in what way? I'm not sure I understand your question. In  
neither case will an exception thrown from the << operator be caught.  
In the first case, the << operator is not in a try block, and in both  
cases, only an exception of integer type is caught, while the <<  
operator throws exceptions (when enabled) of type ios::exception.
