[LLVMdev] SJLJ EH

that's to say we need modify the llvm-gcc so the front end can
generate the sjlj-style IR,

my approach :  when the user use the option, e.g  -enable-sjlj-eh, I
will build the  register and unregister, and
other handle sjlj-eh calls, at my target side.  yeah, that's  a  ugly
method, because I  didn't touch the llvm-gcc

because of my above ugly approach!   now  that's very difficult for me
to generate the  right  exception table!
