Makes sense. I'm new to the GCC mailing lists, so that one was 
unfamiliar to me.

I've actually managed to come up with a much more concise Objective-C 
demonstration. I've uploaded it at:
https://codeberg.org/jdemille/gcc-exception-ub-demo

I'm unsure if my patch actually fixes it with this demo -- I need to 
work out how to use a patched GCC without installing it on my system, 
but without it breaking from not having things it expects to exist on 
the system.

I'm also going to go make sure that the Objective-C unwind personality 
is unique, otherwise we could have trouble.
