   Exceptions are not a problem - there are a number of implementations   
   that would be feasible to code in C.  You might not be able to code   
   the fastest possible implementation, but it would certainly work.   
      
   Templates I'm not certain about but I can't immediately think of   
   anything that would preclude implementing them.
