• SR-429 Error catching broken on Linux

Issue Description:

SwiftFoundation is currently lacking an implementation of NSKeyedArchiver and NSKeyedUnarchiver. There are a few issues that make implementing this a little difficult which have been discussed on the mailing list, notwithstanding that an in-progress implementation can be found here:
