[Bug libgcj/14922] New: [3.5 Regression] Changes to libffi cause exception handling does not work

[pinskia at gcc dot gnu dot org]

After the change to libffi to correspond to "changes in EH format resulting from addition of 
linkonce support".
Exception handing support no longer works through libffi.
Caused by:
2004-03-12  Matt Austern  <austern@apple.com>
        
        * src/powerpc/darwin.S: Fix EH information so it corresponds to
        changes in EH format resulting from addition of linkonce support.
        * src/powerpc/darwin_closure.S: Likewise.

This causes gij failures also.

Latest and greatest patch here: <http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2004-04/
