Catchpoint 1 (throw)
That was a mistake in the documentation, they didn't actually get
around to implementing it.
They have since rectified that mistake, but it's only going to be in
version 7.7
See bug:
http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=13588
That bug seems to be about adding filtering based on exception type, not
about supporting catchpoints in general; the latter have worked for
years in gdb-linux (at a minimum, my server at work can do it with
gdb-7.4).
The problem here is that gdb-cygwin crashes when running with a
catchpoint enabled. I don't see any bugs on Sourceware about that,
though I suspect the search interface is terrible so I could be missing
something obvious.
