I've was running a program as a heap image and ran into a bit of a  
problem.  It seems that unhandled exceptions don't do anything, i.e.  
the program stops and there is no message of any sort.

Doesn't that kind of defeat the purpose of having something called an  
exception ?

Why doesn't SML include a default handler for exceptions when using  
the heap image ?

This is probably in the FAQ isn't it ? :-)
