--- Comment #1 from Rainer Schuetze <r.sagitario at gmx.de> ---
Maybe you switched to building 64-bit processes in the mean time? If built with
dmd, this uses a custom exception handling mechanism unknown to the VS
debugger.

With 32-bit processes and with LDC, exception are regular Win32/C++ exceptions,
and can be set to break on throwing exceptions (enable all exception to see
which one triggers).

The D-Exceptions only work when using the mago-debug-engine. This can only be
selected with visualdproj projects as the debugger to use, but has become
obsolete  in all other aspects.
