main.

Multiple C++ exception handlers: A minor problem with Palomino being C++ and GLUT being C is that call-stack frames can become a mixture of C and C++. That happens at the point were glutMainLoop() is called: GLUT generates C stack frames. C++ cannot unwind frames generated by C code, so the C++ run-time will resort to calling std::terminate(). In that case, effectively, C++ exceptions cannot be caught. But a workaround is to put new "try" blocks inside GLUT callbacks, since further frames after "try" will be generated by C++ which can be unwound.
