Forcing a function call to handle an exceptional condition when it doesn't know how doesn't really add anything but bloat to your source code (violating DRY). It's interesting the author mentions goto, because without exceptions goto is often the most reasonable but more error prone way to handle cleanup. C++ solves this using RAII, if you need something to run before the end of the scope, stick it in a destructor. This is very easy and far more composable.
