Sorry, can you elaborate a bit?

Lets say we have a region with only a function call. Nothing in the
region throws, but after inline something might. That is what the code
is trying to handle, right? Why can't the inliner update the region it
inlines the function to as throwing?

The patch is for lto. Debug is completely broken already.

For lto  I think the best option now is to take the missed optimizations.
