 In this case you probably compiled Orxonox with a different version of MinGW than the dependencies are. Note that there are two different methods of exception handling: SJLJ (setjmp/longjmp) and DW2 (Dwarf-2). The dependencies are compiled using DW2. You either have to recompile the C++ dependencies (boost, cegui, ogre) or install the correct version of MinGW. You can check which method your installation supports if you search for {{{c:\mingw\bin\libgcc_s_xxx-1.dll}}} - xxx is either dw2 or sjlj.

+You probably have to install OpenAL. See the section about OpenAL in [wiki:WindowsMinGW/current#Dependencies the guide].
