And the standard library basically can't do this for every function.

It's deh.d or rather deh_win32./ deh_win64_posix.d and it doesn't look 
like _all_ that lot especially if you have no finally blocks and the 
only catch is the top-most catch-all.
After all error codes would also have to propagate up the same call 
stack depth.
