Better to hack it in the direction we'd like to go (dwarf2 unwinders)
than in a direction we do not want to go (compatible with HP's
unwinder library).
Why is that a direction we don't want to go? Isn't it always better for GC
to be compatible with as many vendor features as possible? Shouldn't we be
able to mix vendor- and GCC-built object files when processing exceptions?
What about linking with third-party libraries and propagating exceptions
through them? Wouldn't that be simpler if using HP's unwinder library?
