and AFAIK it's impossible to implement zero-overhead stack unwinding (you're the exception expert, so please correct me if I'm wrong).
If by "zero-overhead stack unwinding" you mean exception handling that has no speed cost unless an exception is thrown, then consider yourself corrected.
This means that it is impossible to implement stack unwind with no speed cost when an exception is not thrown? I'm definitely not an expert, not even a newbie in this field probably, but I thought it was possble. Or did I misunderstood your statement? -- Felipe Magno de Almeida
