Is it possible for you to find a sponsor willing to pay you to implement 
exceptions on Windows inside LLVM? I think LLVM interests enough people, and 
exceptions can then be used in C++ code too.
I have no idea of the amount of work required, but maybe one or two months of 
work may suffice to do that.

Once LLVM has them, LDC can use them and can be used on Windows too. So LDC may 
become the reference D compiler (and it can grow support for D2 language in 
some months).
LLVM isn't as efficient as GCC, but it's modern and actively developed.

(Eventually a project like dil too (D front-end for LLVM written in D) may 
become viable, but that's for the future).
