I guess Duncan's answer in this thread is the best answer to give:

<<Once that [The exception handling stuff needed by llvm-gcc] was done I guess everyone took a breather and kind of forgot about unwind>>

So yes, ultimately, unwind will be supported and clang/llvm should provide its own unwinding runtime. 

Patches welcome :)

Cheers,
Nicolas
