This is possibly something that the standards committee should address.  There are lots of situations where you don’t want to enable exceptions, and it would be nice to have an official, standard version of C++ that would work in this situation.  Embedded C++ tried, but threw away too much to be useful in practice.  Is there a subcommittee looking at this kind of use?
