Canceling review because my try build looks fishy.

Hey ted, on Linux, with the above patch, I'm getting:

This is probably because I enabled -fcxx-exceptions on CXX_FLAGS so that I could use throw within nsTestCrasher.cpp. My moz.build-fu isn't amazing - but did I accidentally set -fcxx-exceptions true for all binary builds? If so, do you know how I can just set it to true for the testcrasher library?
Flags: needinfo?(ted)
You did only enable it for the testcrasher lib, but nsTestCrasher.cpp includes a bunch of headers and it looks like the Breakpad headers we include (so we can read minidumps for testing) wind up including the STL headers and you get screwed. This is what I was thinking of when I said "it might be a pain to actually raise a C++ exception since we disable exceptions by default" in the other bug.
Flags: needinfo?(ted)
Hm. Is it possible to link a separate object file into the testcrasher lib that was compiled with exceptions allowed?

Looks good, thanks for taking the time to write a useful test!

Do you need to handle the MSVC case here, or does it work even though we're building without exceptions?

Full disclosure: no idea. Was fully cargo-culting from [this](http://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/cac6cb6a10afb8ebb2ecfbeeedaff7c66f57dd75/toolkit/crashreporter/jsoncpp/src/lib_json/moz.build#19-28). How would I find out whether or not this condition is necessary?
ni? for comment 9.

If you pushed to try and the tests passed on Windows it should be fine.
