With
  Dim oFoo as new com.sun.star.module.Foo
it is possible in Basic to create instances of the css.module.Foo type, provided
it is a UNO structure. Also, there exists a method CreateUnoStruct, taking the
name of the structure to create.

For some purposes, it is useful to also be able to create instances of
*exceptions* in Basic. For instances, there is an UNO service in css.sdb which
takes a css.sdbc.SQLException as parameter. Normally, this property is filled
with errors got elsewhere, but sometimes, I wish to fill it with a newly created
exception instance for testing purposes.

Sadly, attempts to do
(1) Dim oError as new com.sun.star.sdbc.SQLException
or
(2) Dim oError as Object
    oError = CreateUnoStruct( "com.sun.star.sdbc.SQLException" )
don't work at all - the former yields a compile-time error, the latter simply
creates a NULL object.

Technically, the only difference between exceptions and structs in UNO is that
the former can be thrown, where the latter can't. Besides this, they're both a
collection of fields. So, I don't see a reason why (1) from above should not 
work.

The attached patch implements this.
