Oh yeah, duh.  main.cc is calling "quit" in a catch-clause which, as you 
said, is an invalid command, after removing all those translation units 
that define the commands.  The invalid command at that point throws an 
uncaught exception -- hence, abort/terminate.  The catch clause should 
probably be written to never throw, if possible.  But this is a somewhat 
artificial scenario we've created...
