C++ compatibility

In fontdbox_object uses the symbol |try| for the try string. This is, of
course a c++ reserved keyword, and therefore its use constitutes a bug.
There does not appear to be any backward-compatible way of fixing this,
so I intend to rename it try_string. Anyone trying to compie using the
old name will see a compile-time error, but binaries will be compatible,
so there's really no harm done.
Comments, anyone?
