This field is present in newer versions of the ABI spec and is also =
there in new versions of libsupc++.  It's required for implementing =
C++11 dependent exceptions.

It shouldn't matter for code that doesn't allocate the structure (and =
nothing outside of libsupc++ / libcxxrt should be allocating them), =
because these structures are always passed around by pointers to their =
ends (where the _Unwind_Exception structure lives).
