This is a feature specific to the MinGW target, so I think what MinGW does 
there is the most relevant, also due to binary compatibility concerns. We 
are currently not binary-compatible with the upstream MinGW toolchain, which 
is what projects like kdewin use (not upstream FSF GCC).

__attribute__((seh_aware)) is a hack, but it's the best solution to the 
"throwing exceptions through DLLs" problem so far.
