> That's true, but this model will handle all of them. MSVC has two main EH personalites: C++ EH and SEH. Both use outlined cleanups, and this EH model will be used to trigger that outlining in the backend. The language-specific tables will key off the name of the personality function instead of this enum.

I meant more 32-bit vs. 64-bit EH, unless you think those will be implemented by the same backend scheme.
