1) Swapping to c++ instead of assembly implementations of several kernel APIs to avoid calling probably broken implementations of __EH_FRAME_?? macros
2) Commenting out otherwise unavoidable calls to __EH_FRAME_?? macros in uc_exe.cia. This is a temporary hack.
Both changes to see if they get past an early kernel panic in the Syborg ROM from the current build:
EH ERROR: no exception descriptor for address 0x801eb277
Thread efile.exe::Main Panic USER-EXEC 3
Exceptions library release 1.01.
This source code is intended to be compliant with release 1.0 of the EHABI.
The following defects against the previous (1.0) release have been fixed:
1) The personality routines were checking handler table entry descriptor
ranges using virtual r14 not virtual r15. Consequently if the entry contained
two or more descriptors with matching ranges, and the first was a cleanup,
subsequent descriptors would incorrectly fail the range check because the
cleanup code legitimately corrupted r14 (and hence virtual r14; virtual r15
is preserved).
2) The runtime library would call abort() instead of terminate() under this
sequence of events:
i) The program installs an unexpected exception handler (set_unexpected(...)).
ii) A throw of type T violates a function exception specification, causing
unexpected() to be called and the user's handler to be entered.
iii) The handler throws another exception of type T.
3) Type matching when throwing a NULL pointer to pointer to T (any type T)
could dereference down the "pointer" chain beginning at location 0 (=NULL),
hence possibly accessing any location in memory.
