We have a mixed MPI/OMP parallel Fortran code, -fexceptions is being added automagically by the openmpi compiler driver (mpif90). This might be to allow mixed C++/C/Fortran codes to work (but I couldn't quite find docs about this on the openmpi webpage). -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=45172
