I have tried abort() and RTEMS shutdowns normally.

The problem with exceptions not caught is that the stack overflows( Init
task ).

By default, RTEMS starts the init task( pthread task ) with a stack of 2K
for the
PC386 bsp. This is not enough when you have complex chains of try/catch
blocks.
EGCS seems to require around 2.5K minimal of stack to handle
exceptions.  Can anyone confirm this ?
I have got this number from my debug session using GDB. I could be wrong
here.

I have changed the stack size of the initial task to 8K and everything
works ok.

I had to re-compile RTEMS to get the stack size of the Init Task ( pthread )
changed.

Joel,

Is there a way to change the size of stack of an Init Task ( pthread )
without
re-compiling RTEMS ?
