Description

These are actually two related issues:

• The TApplication exception should support IBase
• All custom IDL exceptions should also support IBase

Although this sounds like the same thing, in fact it is not because for the second we need to touch the compiler, while the first is a pure library change only. Nevertheless, since both cover the same use case, they deserve to share the same ticket.
