With a recent upgrade of -CURRENT on my FreeBSD/ppc machine it appears  
that the stack smash protection breaks exception handling.  This was  
tested with C++ and Objective-C, and both segfault at the same place  
in libgcc_s.so.1, but it is fixed by recompiling world with  
WITHOUT_SSP=YES.  Perhaps this should be the default for now?
