OK, I still do not see how ehclanup1 can then safely remove them pre-inline given that the whole function body can be inlined into another containing the outer EH region. If this is valid, why we can not just eliminate EH in those outer clobber try..finally as part of ehlowering earlier? Honza > > Jakub
