Richard Henderson has submitted (a few years ago) a patch to add SEH support for Windows 64.
We have rebased it and we are testing it for Ada with our tests.
I hope this work will be soon ready and I plan to resubmit the patch (which in fact was only
partially committed: only SEH unwinding info generation are currently in GCC).
I haven't tested it with C++ (I think Richard did), but it should work: the runtime interface routines to SEH is sane.
