I have the needed macros implemented for 7.4 in PL/Java. Look in 
src/C/pljava.h.

The exception handling in versions prior to 8.0 is very rudimentary 
though. There's (as you already discovered) no way to find the cause of 
an error. The error is reported to the caller and discarded before the 
longjmp occurs.

This *much* better in 8.0. Thank's Tom.
