+ * opt.ads (Exception_Mechanism): Now three values: Front_End_SJLJ,
+ Back_End_SJLJ and Back_End_ZCX.
+ (Back_End_Exceptions, Front_End_Exceptions, ZCX_Exceptions,
+ SJLJ_Exceptions): New functions, reflecting properties of the current
+ Exception_Mechanism.
+ * opt.adb: Implement the new functions.
+ * fe.h: Bind the new Exception_Mechanism and helper functions for gigi.
+
+ * exp_ch11.adb (Expand_At_End_Handler): Replace test on mechanism by
+ use of property helper and update comments.
+ (Expand_Exception_Handlers): Replace tests on mechanism by use of
+ helper. Restrict Abort_Defer to ZCX specifically.
+ * exp_ch9.adb (Expand_N_Asynchronous_Select): Replace tests on
+ mechanism by calls to helper functions. Abort_Undefer for ZCX only,
+ paired with Expand_Exception_Handlers.

+ by calls to helper functions. Abort_Undefer for ZCX only, paired with
+ Expand_Exception_Handlers.
+
+ * lib-writ.ads (P line documentation): Add entry for "FX",
+ representative of unit compiled with Frontend_Exceptions True.
+ * lib-writ.adb (Output_Main_Program_Line): Add "FX" on P line if
+ compiled with Frontend_Exceptions True.
+
+ * ali.ads (ALIs_Record): Ada a Frontend_Exceptions component, to reflect
+ whether the ALI file contained an "FX" indication on the P line.
+ (Frontend_Exceptions_Specified): New boolean, to keep track of whether
+ at least an FX ALI file is in the closure.
+ * ali.adb (Scan_ALI): Handle "FX" on the P line.
+ (Initialize_ALI): Initialize Frontend_Exceptions_Specified to False.
+
+ * targparm.ads: Update desription of exception schemes.
+ (Frontend_Exceptions_On_Target): New flag, reflect Frontend_Exceptions
+ set to True in system.ads, or not set at all.
+ * targparm.adb (Targparm_Tags): Add FEX to convey Frontend_Exceptions.
+ Rename ZCD to ZCX for consistency.
+ (FEX_Str, Targparm_Str, Get_Target_Parameters): Adjust accordingly.
+
+ * gnat1drv.adb (Adjust_Global_Switches): Adjust Exception_Mechanism
+ setting, now from combination of Frontend_Exceptions and ZCX_By_Default.
+
+ * bcheck.adb (Check_Consistent_Zero_Cost_Exception_Handling): Rename
+ as ...
+ (Check_Consistent_Exception_Handling): Check consistency of both
+ ZCX_By_Default and Frontend_Exceptions.
+ (Check_Configuration_Consistency): Check_Consistent_Exception_Handling
+ if either flag was set at least once.
+
+ * make.adb (Check): Remove processing of a possible -fsjlj coming from
+ lang-specs.h.
+ * gnatlink.adb (Gnatlin): Likewise.
+
+ * gcc-interface/Makefile.in (gnatlib-sjlj/zcx): Now set
+ both ZCX_By_Default and Frontend_Exceptions.
+ * gcc-interface/decl.c (gnat_to_gnu_entity, case E_Variable):
+ Use eh property helper to test for back-end exceptions. Adjust
+ mechanism name when testing for front-end sjlj.
+ (case E_Procedure): Likewise.
+ * gcc-interface/trans.c (Handled_Sequence_Of_Statements_to_gnu):
+ Likewise, and rename local variables.
+ (Exception_Handler_to_gnu_sjlj): Rename as
+ Exception_Handler_to_gnu_fe_sjlj.
+ (Exception_Handler_to_gnu_zcx): Rename as
+ Exception_Handler_to_gnu_gcc and adjust tests on eh mechanisms
+ to use property helpers or correct mechanism name.

-- Back-End Zero Cost Exceptions
