Summary:                    [patch] chan_vpb fails to catch exception on 1.4
Description: 
On module startup, chan_vpb asks libvpb to scan for relevant hardware. If
libvpb fails to find any, it raises an exception:

	try {
		num_cards = vpb_get_num_cards();
	} catch (VpbException e) {
		ast_log(LOG_ERROR, "No Voicetronix cards detected\n");
		return AST_MODULE_LOAD_DECLINE;
	}

This seems to work as planned on trunk . However with 1.4 (on the same
system and same libvpb) I get

*CLI> module load chan_vpb.so
[Apr 25 11:56:50] ERROR[20919]: chan_vpb.cc:2720 ast_module_load_result
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'VpbException'
  what():  VPBREG_NO_VPB_DEVICES_DETECTED
/home/tzafrir/Proj/Asterisk/Git/asterisk/live_ast: line 170: 20919 Aborted
                $AST_BIN -C $AST_CONF "$@"

The fix/workaround (attached) is to use the parent class std::exception .

After which I get:

*CLI> module load chan_vpb.so
[Apr 25 11:58:40] ERROR[21550]: chan_vpb.cc:2722 ast_module_load_result
load_module(): No Voicetronix cards detected

and no panic.
