Now that DW2 is becoming the default on Win32, shifting back to old SJLJ would be going -against- progress. (And be bad timing, too :-)
"Becoming"? Is it the default in GCC 4.4.1 or not?
What exactly is the rationale for using Dwarf2 EH right now? That it will work correctly in the future?
For me the more important considerations were that it might cause Windows-specific crashes and will bloat the code. (Dwarf2 gtkmm is 15MB while SJLJ gtkmm is less than 4MB.) I just don't see a compelling reason to use it at the moment. The situation might change once we move to building with GCC 4.5.
