Are there any future plans for Win64 since it won't ever support dwarf

VC++'s Win64 exception handling scheme is not at all the Win32 scheme
and definitely not Dwarf EH. Supporting it would be an additional level
of effort on par with supporting Dwarf EH, presuming documentation on it
can be found. (I haven't looked for it.)
If someone wants to search for a spec for it, that would be a good
start.
I believe the last link will be most helpful. But first will give you
a good
understanding and where to go(its for the linker).
If anybody wishes to look more into it.

They have bits and pieces of the info, but nothing about what is
actually generated to, say, catch an exception.
Hmm you're right.
But on the plus side I found this:
