180    throw_exception() than all cleanups installed since
181    catch_exceptions() was entered are invoked, the (-ve) exception
182    value is then returned by catch_exceptions.  If FUNC() returns
183    normally (with a positive or zero return value) then that value is
184    returned by catch_exceptions().  It is an internal_error() for
185    FUNC() to return a negative value.
186 
187    For the period of the FUNC() call: UIOUT is installed as the output
188    builder; ERRSTRING is installed as the error/quit message; and a
189    new cleanup_chain is established.  The old values are restored
190    before catch_exceptions() returns.
191 
192    The variant catch_exceptions_with_msg() is the same as
193    catch_exceptions() but adds the ability to return an allocated
194    copy of the gdb error message.  This is used when a silent error is
195    issued and the caller wants to manually issue the error message.
196 
197    MASK specifies what to catch; it is normally set to
198    RETURN_MASK_ALL, if for no other reason than that the code which
199    calls catch_errors might not be set up to deal with a quit which
200    isn't caught.  But if the code can deal with it, it generally
201    should be RETURN_MASK_ERROR, unless for some reason it is more
202    useful to abort only the portion of the operation inside the
203    catch_errors.  Note that quit should return to the command line
204    fairly quickly, even if some further processing is being done.
