not by default but as an option if its needed to get closer to<br>
full interop with vstudio compiled libs<br>

So, as I'm looking at this, thinking about trying to get it implemented by<br>
June, I came up with a question for the list. Does anyone feel strongly<br>
that we should follow the Visual C++ SEH approach or just make sure it is<br>
functional. Visual C++ uses a crazy fancy extended structure to make sure<br>
that everything goes back to the same function, but the operating system<br>
doesn't mandate that we take that approach.<br>
<br>
Opinions?<br>
