Thanks James!
I've changed the try/catch to:
<cftry>
<cfset VARIABLES.services[ARGUMENTS.service] = CreateObject("component",
"cfc.#ARGUMENTS.service#Service").init()>
<cfcatch type="any">
<cfif CFCATCH.Message EQ "Could not find the ColdFusion
Component or
Interface cfc.#ARGUMENTS.service#Service.">
<cfthrow type="" message="No such service:
#ARGUMENTS.service#<br
/>#GetCurrentTemplatePath()#">
<cfelse>
<cfrethrow>
</cfif>
</cfcatch>
</cftry>
This now throws my own exception when the service doesn't exist and let's
others through.
Ta.

Subject: Re: cfcatch type="" problem
You could examine cfcatch.message to see if it matches the type of
exception you want. If so, handle it, if not, use cfrethrow.
However, since your error handling is essentially just throwing your
own description of the same error, can you just allow the original
error to be thrown?
