A constant error source is the RTEMS configuration, so it is always good 
to have self-contained example and not some code snippet. I would always 
set a break point to _Terminate(), since this gives you a good hint in 
most cases.

You likely have not enough resources for the C++ basics, try to use

#define CONFIGURE_UNLIMITED_OBJECTS
#define CONFIGURE_UNIFIED_WORK_AREAS

for an easy start.
