Thanks for writing this up. I always enjoy reading these reports. One grotty low-level question about the new exception proposal. Your post states: "it was observed that since we need to revise the calling convention as part of this proposal anyways, perhaps we could take the opportunity to make other improvements to it as well, such as allowing small objects to be passed in registers, the lack of which is a pretty unfortunate performance problem today (certainly one we’ve run into at Mozilla multiple times). That seems intriguing." How is revising the calling convention a C++ standards committee issue? Doesn't that properly belong to the underlying platform (CPU and/or OS)?
