Max,
Do we use some win32 callbacks with exceptions in setup.exe?
I do see some candidates, but I didn't follow the codepath exactly.

We definitely use exceptions within non-main threads, which are callbacks of a kind, I suppose.


I'd have to go look to see if we have any exceptions within window procedures.

It would be really useful to know whether it is safe to throw an exception within a callback, provided it is caught before the callback returns. Does anyone know of anyone who might be able to answer that?
