  This is a weird one. I know why it doesn't work, but knowing why isn't much
help. I put an "fflush(stdout)" call in the main program after the call to
"try", and then ran "adb" on this program, putting a breakpoint in "write".
The result of that shows that it is trying to write the string "subprogram"
on file descriptor 3. How about it, compiler wizards? What the '&"#%@*! is
going on?
