__cxa_exception vs __cxa_call_unexpected

The c++ exception structure contains
int handlerSwitchValue;
const unsigned char *actionRecord;
const unsigned char *languageSpecificData;
void *catchTemp;
for use in communicating between the personality routine and
__cxa_call_unexpected. In order to be able to interpret the
LSDA, one needs a copy of the associated GP. I don't see any
place that this value may be cached. The _Unwind_Context was
local to _Unwind_RaiseException, and so was destroyed when we
transfered control to the handler.
What are other folks doing?
