There is a clear expectation that SEH is available on 64bit as expressed
in cygming.h from gcc (but not on 32bit, which explains why there's no
problem there):

#define TARGET_SEH  (TARGET_64BIT_MS_ABI && flag_unwind_tables)

and MS_ABI is the default for 64bit, flag_unwind_tables is a global
variable that is set to 1 by default and very few platforms set it to 0.
