Subject: [PATCH 16/20] Remove some now-dead exception code
Date: Wed, 13 Feb 2019 21:29:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190213212927.9474-17-tom@tromey.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190213212927.9474-1-tom@tromey.com>

After the rewriting to use try/catch, some of the exception code is
now unused.  This patch removes that code.

	(TRY, CATCH, END_CATCH): Remove.
	* common/common-exceptions.c (exception_rethrow): Remove.
