It has been deactivated traditionally because earliert GCC (I think < 4.0) introduced runtime overhead even when no exception was raised. If this has improved it might be interesting to see how other Qt dependent code reacts to the change, notably KDE I would guess that any code assuming no exception policy might crash in situation it would have otherwise handled gracefully.
