A good solution is to provide a customization point: call a handler that can be replaced by the user.
The language already provides this customization through set_unexpected and set_terminate.
But terminate/unexpected functions have special semantics that don't quite fit here. For example, the handler should be able to return.
Althought no standard mandates it, it is commonly expected that each thread can set its own terminate() or unexpected() function -- calling set_terminate() or set_unexpected() in one thread affects only the exceptions in that thread.
