You need a mechanism for jumping to the scope guard code. Can't do any code
motion optimizations across the boundaries of such code. Can't do register
assignments for variables that are "live" across that boundary.
Just write some code with destructors in C++, compile it with and without
exceptions enabled, and dump the generated assembler.
