Log:
  Add an ugly hack to libgcc's unwind code, to make it behave properly at
  runtime on amd64, when it is compiled by clang.  Some versions of clang
  don't save and restore all callee registers, if a __builtin_eh_return()
  intrinsic is used in a function.  This is particularly bad on amd64.
  
  Until the problem gets fixed by upstream, use an asm statement to force
  clang to assume the registers in question are clobbered, when invoking
  __builtin_eh_return(), so it will emit code to save and restore them.
  
  This should fix the crashes reported on -current with some C++ programs,
  particularly those that throw exceptions over multiple function
  boundaries.
