What's the status of SEH on Windows?
It's not looking good, at least not for 32bit. Borland has some kind of
patent on something related to SEH. Due to this, the LLVM/Clang
developers won't implement SEH for Windows.
That sounds paranoid to me. I believe the patent is essentially a
workaround for the absence of thread-local variables on 16-bit Windows.
In D we have working thread-local variables even on Windows versions
that don't support them, thanks to Rainer's brilliant work. Which gives
very many ways of implementing exception handling on Windows.
