As I discussed with libc++ maintainer Eric Fiselier, it would be nice if those
functions called terminate() in the 'fatal' case instead. Then you at least
have some standardized way of overriding the termination with your own
mechanism, which appears to be what the Mozilla authors wanted to achieve.
(Note that even gcc redefines abort() so it can catch it in its own way... :)
