Hmm, that may be worth looking into, but can be done in a follow-up patch. SEH likely causes problems here for you as well.

Comment at: clang-tidy/openmp/ExceptionEscapeCheck.cpp:75-76
+  diag(Directive->getBeginLoc(),

+       "that same region.")
+      << getOpenMPDirectiveName(Directive->getDirectiveKind());

You need to remove the full stop from the end of the sentence as well. How about: `exception through inside OpenMP '%0' region is not caught within the region`

+As per the OpenMP specification, structured block is an executable statement,
+possibly compound, with a single entry at the top and a single exit at the
+bottom. Which means, ``throw`` may not be used to to 'exit' out of the
+structured block. If an exception is not caught in the same structured block

This might be another future thing for the patch to handle. May be worth adding some FIXME comments to the code detailing the extensions we want to see.

+structured block. If an exception is not caught in the same structured block
+it was thrown in, the behaviour is undefined / implementation defined,
+the program will likely terminate.

Unspecified also has special meaning -- you may want to double-check what the precise behavior is, but I suspect it is undefined behavior to violate these constraints.
