This doesn't fully force disable exceptions like -fno-exceptions does with gcc and clang, it can result in unexpected behaviour that causes hard to track bugs that will be difficult to solve if someone who isn't familiar with HotSpot rules introduces exceptions in gtest code (And perhaps in other cases even when exceptions aren't used too). ------------- PR Review Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/26721#discussion_r2276856013
