We previously decided on cxxabi.h for the header, in conjunction
with D-9 (longjmp). Aside from the ".h", which I don't care about,
I prefer not including "ia64" because I have quixotic notions about the
possibility of this ABI spreading elsewhere, and don't think source
code ought to need to change in such cases.
