Another problem is that by changing the behavior of a developer's code without their explicitly changing it is a lot harder to warranty.

Because of the differing requirements between the old exception handling and the new, who's to say some correct behavior in the old wouldn't cause problems when used with the new?

Better to let developers explicitly choose which mechanism to use, even after they've turned on support for the new feature.

I wonder why the macros are not redefined to use @try etc. when the compiler
