There is no string handling code in std::terminate:
namespace std
{
typedef void (*terminate_handler) ();
void terminate() _GLIBCXX_USE_NOEXCEPT __attribute__ ((__noreturn__));
}
void
__cxxabiv1::__terminate (std::terminate_handler handler) throw ()
{
__try
{
handler ();
std::abort ();
}
__catch(...)
{ std::abort (); }
}
void
std::terminate () throw()
{
__terminate (get_terminate ());
}
Please clarify what you're talking about.
