   normally (with a positive or zero return value) then that value is
   returned by catch_exceptions().  It is an internal_error() for
   FUNC() to return a negative value.

   For the period of the FUNC() call: UIOUT is installed as the output
   builder; ERRSTRING is installed as the error/quit message; and a
   new cleanup_chain is established.  The old values are restored
   before catch_exceptions() returns.

   The variant catch_exceptions_with_msg() is the same as
   catch_exceptions() but adds the ability to return an allocated
   copy of the gdb error message.  This is used when a silent error is 
   issued and the caller wants to manually issue the error message.

   MASK specifies what to catch; it is normally set to
   RETURN_MASK_ALL, if for no other reason than that the code which
   calls catch_errors might not be set up to deal with a quit which
   isn't caught.  But if the code can deal with it, it generally
   should be RETURN_MASK_ERROR, unless for some reason it is more
   useful to abort only the portion of the operation inside the
   catch_errors.  Note that quit should return to the command line
   fairly quickly, even if some further processing is being done.
