Description
In NPTL thread cancellation is implemented using exceptions. The iostreams functions contains a catch-all clause which does not rethrow the exception. This is possible to expect but should really never happen in any code. The rules C++ experts developed state that catch-all cases must rethrow. If not then strange things can happen since one doesn't always know exactly what exceptions are thrown.
Simple patch for sync functions attached.
