The big reason for them in C++ is so objects can be correctly destroyed.
A goto out of a block doesn't call the destructors for objects in that
and other outer blocks, while a throw correctly destroys things until it
hits an appropriate catch block.
In C, there isn't as much justification for using exception handling.
