Right, so we're here:
/* Main exception handler. */
extern "C" char *__progname;
int
_cygtls::handle_exceptions (EXCEPTION_RECORD *e, exception_list *frame,
CONTEXT *in, void *)
{
static bool NO_COPY debugging;
static int NO_COPY recursed;
_cygtls& me = _my_tls;
if (debugging && ++debugging < 500000)
{
SetThreadPriority (hMainThread, THREAD_PRIORITY_NORMAL);
return 0;
}
/* If we've already exited, don't do anything here. Returning 1
tells Windows to keep looking for an exception handler. */
if (exit_already || e->ExceptionFlags)
return 1;
and the 1 is getting returned because the problem has arisen during the
processing of exit() for the main thread (whatever the original underlying
problem is), and 1 means 'keep looking', but of course because the SEH chain
has become circular it just keeps on going forever.
That's interesting. How is re-throwing an SEH exception meant to deal with
the possibility that the stack (where the SEH registration chain) lives may
possibly have become messed up?
cheers,
