Asynchronous unwind tables are enabled for aarch64, i686,

ppc64le, s390x, and x86_64. They are not needed on armhfp due to

architectural differences in stack management. On these

architectures, `-fexceptions` (see above) still enables regular

unwind tables (or they are enabled by default even without this
