Ken Brown 74cf7dabcb Cygwin: main exception handler (64-bit): continue GCC exceptions
This is necessary in order to be consistent with the following comment
in the definition of _Unwind_RaiseException() in the GCC source file
libgcc/unwind-seh.c:

     The exception handler installed in crt0 will continue any GCC
     exception that reaches there (and isn't marked non-continuable).

Previously we failed to do this and, as a consequence, the C++ runtime
didn't call std::terminate after an unhandled exception.

This fixes the problem reported here:
