I see Ben's already answered in favour of exceptions, but I have to say that (at least for the core library) I'm not in favour. (Though, like the STL, I have no problem with using it in user-code, of course.) I think it stems from my background in asm and embedded; I'd much rather be "sure" the core was right, than depend on a mechanism to clean up my mistakes after the fact... And of course many embedded systems don't (or at least didn't, times change, things move on...) support exceptions anyway. I see Ben says "They're portable (except perhaps to some really obscure embedded systems)" - I guess he means me!
