AAARGH!!!! I don't believe this. The problem was the following line,
with which I compiled the program:

 gcc NSExceptionTest.m -L/usr/local/lib -lobjects -lobjc -L/usr/ucblib -lucb -lm

Apparently, there are some serious bugs in the ucblib files.  I
changed the line to

 gcc NSExceptionTest.m -L/usr/local/lib -lobjects -lobjc -lm -lnsl

And now it works just like under NeXTSTEP (even the rangecheck works)!
Great!  Maybe there should be some hint in a README file about linking
code with libobjects.
