+// The ARM M-Profile Armv7-M Architecture Reference Manual

+// saves registers to the stack, decrements the stack pointer,
+// puts a special value in $lr, and then calls a registered
+// exception handler routine.
+//
+// Detect that special value in $lr, and if present, add
+// unwind rules for the registers that were saved above this
+// stack frame's CFA. Overwrite any register locations that
+// the current_unwindplan has for these registers; they are
+// not correct when we're invoked this way.

In what circumstance do we need to lookup the PC instead of LR here?
