Bug#529960: libcommoncpp3: TCPSStream does throw even if instructed not to

[Tobias Frost]

Package: libccgnu2-1.7-0
Version: 1.7.3-1
Severity: important


A constructor exists, which tells the object no too use exceptions for error 
reporting.
However, regardless of the parameter, it always throws.

See The attached testcase, which is to be compiled with
 g++ -o testcase testcase.c -l ccgnu2

Output at my machine:

BUG: It was instructed NOT to throw.
