How would this mesh with a possible implementation of __try and __finally (and friends) as implemented by Visual Studio on win32? Having those keywords implemented on the win32 port of GCC (and working exactly like/being compatible with Visual Studio) would be nice :) (no, I am not offering to write the patch :)

If anyone knows of any reason why implementing MS compatible exception handling in GCC on win32 would not be possible, that would be great to know :)
