exception specifications legal in C++/CLI

[Brian]

I'm trying to comile some managed C++ code in VC++ 2005 beta that has a lot
of exception specifications,ie

int func() throw( SomeException*) ;

I'm getting these messages:

error C2353: exception specification is not allowed.

unfortunately MSDN isn't much help here. Obviously, C++/CLI is not allowing
exception specifications. Is there a flag to ignore the specifications?

Yeah, the error message is new so it doesn't appear in the "released"
version of the MSDN library. But at this link

Exception specifications are not allowed on member functions of managed
classes.

The following sample generates C2353:

With no mention of override, I would _assume_ that it is an example of "you
can't get there from here".
