If you specify that some function does not throw an exception, you can enforce
that simply by disallowing the use of "throw", as well as the use of any
function which does not specify "nothrow" inside of the function. I'd guess
thats how it's supposed to work.

With this system, there would of course be some functions, which could never
throw an exception, but are not allowed to carry the nothrow flag, however
(i.e. a function which catches all the exceptions of all used functions).
