I also read your paper. I'm reluctant to any C extension. If you think C lacks features (it does) push your ideas to ISO committee and let it be in the next standard revision. I have software (OpenLisp) that runs on so many compilers and systems that I long stop to count (> 100). Any extension simply does not exist to me. Too often I see developers asking for XXX extension because their code is tight to it. Too bad.

One of those 40 was me. In principle, I like your implementation, but I don't think it belongs in a C compiler. I don't get the whole fuzz about exceptions anyway. Nevertheless, if you want to find people that might be interrested in your ideas, I think the LLVM development mailinglist would be your best choice. Especially if you could make it work for C++ execptions, too. IIRC, there has been a thread there about different trade-offs for exception handling implementations recently.
