In the libstdc++-2.90.x project,
http://sourceware.cygnus.com/libstdc++/,
in the implementation of basic_string<> every call of the
traits_type::copy function is enclosed in a try block
(although basic_string<>::char_type is a POD type).

May (according to the standard) traits::copy throw an exception?
May traits::move throw?
