201 /* Call FUNC(UIOUT, FUNC_ARGS) but wrapped within an exception
202 handler. If an exception (enum return_reason) is thrown using
203 throw_exception() than all cleanups installed since
204 catch_exceptions() was entered are invoked, the (-ve) exception
205 value is then returned by catch_exceptions. If FUNC() returns
206 normally (with a positive or zero return value) then that value is
207 returned by catch_exceptions(). It is an internal_error() for
208 FUNC() to return a negative value.
210 For the period of the FUNC() call: UIOUT is installed as the output
211 builder; ERRSTRING is installed as the error/quit message; and a
212 new cleanup_chain is established. The old values are restored
213 before catch_exceptions() returns.
215 The variant catch_exceptions_with_msg() is the same as
216 catch_exceptions() but adds the ability to return an allocated
217 copy of the gdb error message. This is used when a silent error is
218 issued and the caller wants to manually issue the error message.
220 MASK specifies what to catch; it is normally set to
221 RETURN_MASK_ALL, if for no other reason than that the code which
222 calls catch_errors might not be set up to deal with a quit which
223 isn't caught. But if the code can deal with it, it generally
224 should be RETURN_MASK_ERROR, unless for some reason it is more
225 useful to abort only the portion of the operation inside the
226 catch_errors. Note that quit should return to the command line
227 fairly quickly, even if some further processing is being done.

230 builder variable should just go away.
