Just reporting back further: I found that telling my objc_exception_throw to po $eax had no effect in GDB under Xcode 4.2 / iOS 5. I could say po $eax at the gdb command line and it worked, showing the reason; but Xcode seems to be tromping on the logging in such a way that attaching this as a po gdb command to the exception doesn't work.

However, if I switch to LLDB, it does work. m.
