-----------------------------------------------+----------------------------
 In versions 1.35.0 and 1.36.0 the execution monitor does not detect if
 {{{terminate()}}} is called. In the current trunk (r48903) it does, but
 still does not have any test cases for this condition (so I think it was
 fixed without knowing the problem). I think a test case would be useful to
 detect regressions.

 I noticed this problem with GCC 3.4.6 and GCC 4.1.2 on i486-linux-gnu.
 These compilers always call {{{terminate()}}} from {{{unexpected()}}} (ie.
 they call {{{terminate()}}} even if {{{std::bad_exception}}} is in the
 throw-list), and {{{terminate()}}} calls {{{abort()}}}.
