Subject: Re: C++ (throw() and catch(...) {/* fall through
*/ } ) and pthread cancellation are incompatible (at least with NPTL)
Howard's example seems to me like an argument for not necessarily using
thread cancellation to abort a task, but not for discarding the cancel
request entirely. A cancellation request is asking for a thread to go
away; if you want to send a different message use a different mechanism.
