This patch causes exceptions propagated by the termination handler to be
ignored, as required by the Ada RM. The following test should run to completion
silently:
with Ada.Task_Identification;
with Ada.Task_Termination; use Ada.Task_Termination;
with Ada.Exceptions;
package Task_Term_Exc is
   task T;
end Task_Term_Exc;
package body Task_Term_Exc is

   Some_Error : exception;

   protected Prot is
      procedure Termination_Handler
        (Cause : in Cause_Of_Termination;
         T     : in Ada.Task_Identification.Task_Id;
         X     : in Ada.Exceptions.Exception_Occurrence);
   end Prot;

   protected body Prot is
      procedure Termination_Handler
        (Cause : in Cause_Of_Termination;
         T     : in Ada.Task_Identification.Task_Id;
         X     : in Ada.Exceptions.Exception_Occurrence) is
      begin
         raise Some_Error;
      end Termination_Handler;
   end Prot;

   task body T is
   begin
      Set_Specific_Handler (T'Identity, Prot.Termination_Handler'Access);
   end T;

end Task_Term_Exc;

The test has no main procedure, so must be compiled with -z,
as in "gnatmake -q -f -z -gnat2012 task_term_exc.adb".

Tested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, committed on trunk
