Sounds like a use-case for a refurbished SAL_WARN, which expands to 
nothing in exactly those cases where we want to elide runtime checks for 
unexpected but have no other way to do so (e.g., no 
-fno-enforce-eh-specs in Clang).  And then, it would probably be better 
to have cppumaker generate SAL_THROW-style exception specifications in 
all cases, so that e.g. somebody developing C++ code in a GCC 
--disable-dbgutil scenario would not inadvertently forget those dynamic 
exception specifications in newly written code.
