The program below (when compiled with MSVC6, multithreaded DLL runtime) only
prints "in first handler" on ReactOS and then gets into an endless exception
loop:
int
main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
__try
{
RaiseException(0x55aa, 0, 0, NULL);
}
__except(EXCEPTION_EXECUTE_HANDLER)
{
printf("in first handler\n");
}
__try
{
RaiseException(0xaacc, 0, 0, NULL);
}
__except(EXCEPTION_EXECUTE_HANDLER)
{
printf("in second handler\n");
}
return 0;
}
I believe the reason is that our RtlUnwind removes the target exception
frame too, which it shouldn't do. The following patch seems to solve the
issue:

}
but I'm no expert on exception issues. Is this indeed the correct fix?
