How to I declare a function which throws exceptions E1 and returns a
pointer to a function which throws exceptions E2?

typedef void (*fptr)();
fptr f1() throw(E1) throw(E2);

is this the right way round? ie does the throw(E1) associate with f1 and
throw(E2) associate with fptr? I'm asking because of the compiler I
have, SunCC4.1 doesn't understand exceptions and G++ 2.8.1 (and egcs)
doesn't understand exception specifications on function pointers.
