No words like local or global catch.

"there is no way to catch exceptions from the initialization of global variables (section 14.7)"

This will catch every exception, except those thrown by construction and destruction of global variables. There is no way of catching exceptions thrown during initialization of global variables. The only way of gaining control in case of throw from an initializer of a nonlocal static object is set_unexpected ($14.6.2). This is another reason to avoid global variable whenever possible.

int main()
try {
}
catch(std::range_error) {
}
catch(std::bad_alloc) {
}
catch(...) {
}

Any comments after reading this and reviewing my code sample above?
