[llvm-dev] RFC: throw2goto exception optimization

[Jeff Linahan via llvm-dev]

Yes I'm looking for either community approval or reasons I might be barking
up the wrong tree :) Maybe someone else explored this idea and there's some
big roadblock.  I would like to contribute myself, and there may be others
like Emil who want to help.  I just wanted to let you all know what I want
to optimize since I've never contributed to clang before (sorry I don't
have better ideas on implementation strategy yet being unfamiliar with the
codebase.)
