If the problem is throwing an exception through a function called via
pointer, then the solution should be to follow the suggestion in
comment #8 and add an appropriate incantation of

-Wl,-bkeepfile:

to the link step for GDB, something like

gdb/config/powerpc/aix.mh
MH_LDFLAGS = -Wl,-bkeepfile:event-top.o

Thanks, David
