You have uncovered a very squirmy can of worms, I'm afraid. You have several options, all of them sub-optimal: 1) Use a patched gcc, see http://reactos.wox.org/index.php?page=gccseh 2) Convert the __try blocks into __TRY blocks as supported by wine, see include/wine/exception.h. This will require pretty extensive rewriting of the affected code blocks. 3) Just use dummy macros, along the lines of those in include/rpc.h. This approach will /not/ do any real exception handling, but will get you compiling quickly... no guarantees your compiled code will work, however. 4) See my old attempts to create macros that approximate this using gcc-specific nested functions capabilities, for example, see http://www.winehq.com/hypermail/wine-devel/2003/05/0394.html There are probably a dozen or more such attempts floating around, none of them quite do the right thing of course :( Sorry, this business is messy and so far no really satisfactory solution has been created for a number of reasons.
