* RTTI: :good:`Complete`. Generation of RTTI data structures has been
finished, along with support for the ``/GR`` flag.
-* Exceptions and SEH: :partial:`Partial`.
- C++ exceptions (``try`` / ``catch`` / ``throw``) and
- structured exceptions (``__try`` / ``__except`` / ``__finally``) mostly
- work on x64. 32-bit exception handling support is being worked on. LLVM does
- not model asynchronous exceptions, so it is currently impossible to catch an
- asynchronous exception generated in the same frame as the catching ``__try``.
+* C++ Exceptions: :good:`Mostly complete`. Support for
+ C++ exceptions (``try`` / ``catch`` / ``throw``) have been implemented for
+ x86 and x64. Our implementation has been well tested but we still get the
+ odd bug report now and again.
C++ exception specifications are ignored, but this is `consistent with Visual
C++`_.

added support for thread-safe initialization of such variables by taking an
ABI break.
