Replying to [comment:12 bonefish]:
> Given that the crash happens in the dynamic cast code, this is probably
caused by an uninitialized type info. #1259 explains how this is possible.
In this case we're talking about the `std::exception` type info,
respectively the one of the derived class (if any) that is actually caught
in `EXRTranslator::DerivedIdentify()`.
Question: Would using "catch (...)" instead of "catch (const
std::exception &e)" help to avoid using `std::exception` type info
(provided it's not used anywhere else which I doubt)?
