</div></div>Take a look at UnwindRegisterRestore.s. When an exception is thrown, unw_getcontext() is called which saves all registers and the return address into a register struct. Then the FDE info is used to step through each frame and modify the register set. At which step is the IP register out of bounds?<br>
<br>
It might be that the C files need to be compiled with -fexceptions so that they have unwind tables.<br>
