M68k C++ Exceptions working!

[Charles-Antoine Gauthier]

Now all we need to figure out is whether exception handling is
multithread safe and for which configurations, if any. I don't quite
know what needs to be done to test this. A simple test would be to force
a context switch from the exception handler to another higher priority
thread that throws an exception, but that may not prove that the __throw
functions and its friends are multithread safe.

Any suggestions?
