Currently, C++ language exceptions are used in the stream parsing code 
(which is used for parsing things like MPEG headers), to deal with the 
(exceptional) situation where the parser runs into the end of the input 
buffer (and so new data needs to be read from the input source).

I'd love to be able to get rid of the use of C++ exceptions here (because 
you're not the only person to have tried using a C++ SDK in which 
exceptions aren't available), but right now I don't see any way of doing 
this without turning "StreamParser.hh" (and much of "StreamParser.cpp") 
into a hideous mess of macros.
