        <pre>When building with g++ and lld, an exception that is thrown from a ctor is not
properly caught.

This works fine on linux with both g++ and clang, and on MinGW with clang.

$ cat ex.cpp
#include <iostream>

struct exception {};

struct Foo { Foo() { throw exception(); } };
static void func() { throw exception(); }

int main()
{
    try {
        func();
    } catch(exception &ex) { std::cout << "Caught from func" << std::endl; }
    try {
        Foo tmp;
    } catch(exception &ex) { std::cout << "Caught from ctor" << std::endl; }
    return 0;
}

$ clang++ -fuse-ld=lld -o ex.exe main.cpp

$ ./ex
Caught from func
Caught from ctor

$ g++ -fuse-ld=lld -o ex.exe main.cpp

$ ./ex
Caught from func
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'exception'</pre>
