I believe that you need the personality routine if you will be unwinding
through a function, which is why -fno-exceptions is the test.
You mean unwinding stack frames to handle a thrown exception?
That's true, but shouldn't this only be included when there
exceptions are used? One of the C++ percepts is that there
is no overhead for features which are not used.
Why should the personality routine be included in all C++ programs?
