That's the std::terminate's default handler. That handler is called when an 
exception is thrown but not caught. What exception was thrown? Can you put a 
catch block to see what it was?

Why are you using stlport? Can't you use libstdc++ like everyone else does? 
For that matter, didn't I read a day or two ago that Android had switched the 
NDK to Clang/LLVM, so libc++ should be the one people would use?

This line does nothing.
