Sure it does change something. It wont "necessarily" trigger
unwinding for unexpected exceptions. And pretending that as
far the standard/portable C++ is concerned they're nonexistent
won't really help you to deal with them (given that they can
be thrown by the ordinal C++ throw-expressions, not only "SEH"
things).
