No, not yet.  I don't know a whole lot about this, but I think that we 
need to have a gcc and libg++ that supports threads; and we don't have 
that yet.  But that is supposedly a high priority.  I think. I'm 
forwarding this message to Robert Collins; he may be able to clariy my 
confusion.

Robert -- what's the deal with C++ and exceptions under cygwin, again?
