exception handling not supported on windows

Description

The reason is that the COFF object files generated by llvm-windows can't (yet?) contain the DWARF2 unwinding tables. I suggest using ELF on windows if possible until llvm's exception support improves. This does require people to use an ELF-capable linker and gcc exceptions-dw2 unwinder, but will at least get it working.
