because the compiler will optimize away the finally clause.

Surely you mean "catch" rather than "finally"? I should hope that the 
code you have there is equivalent to:

void bar()
{
        foo();
        will_never_execute();
}

Otherwise you'd break calling code by switching a function to nothrow.
