currently llvm-gcc uses a horrible hack and *always* puts null (catch all)
at the end of the selector (if it wasn't already there) IIRC.  This is needed
to get rethrowing of exceptions working properly when invokes are inlined
into other functions.  I have a plan to fix this, and while it's not complete
I expect to commit some initial code this week sometime.

Ciao,

Duncan.
