Actually, it's a very good question.	

At the March 1995 meeting, the C++ Committee adopted a syntax that
allows you to catch exceptions thrown from an initialization list.
(I don't have my notes handy, but it will appear in the draft standard
to be published in about two weeks.)

At the moment, you cannot catch this exception. Future compilers
will support the new syntax.
