If the problem is in fact the exception handling method, I think we should
look at implementing the DWARF2 unwind mechanism and exception handling using
this unwind mechanism.  The default method of handling exceptions is sjlj.
See the description of DWARF2_UNWIND_INFO and INCOMING_RETURN_ADDR_RTX in
gcc/tm.texi for more info.  Alan Modra may want this for gdb as well.
