I have absolutely no experience with gdb's C++ support, but I saw with
"help catch" that  gdb 6.7.1 (the current GDB release) has this command:

        catch throw <exceptname>  - a particular exception, when thrown

Is it available in your GDB version (which is very old, BTW)? If not, I
suggest obtaining the new GDB and trying it out.
