Patch to omit dwarf2 unwind info for leaves


There's no reason to emit unwind information for leaf functions, since
only calls can throw.

2000-03-08  Jason Merrill  <jason@casey.cygnus.com>

	* dwarf2out.c (dw_fde_struct): Add 'nothrow'.
	(dwarf2out_begin_prologue): Set it.
	(output_call_frame_info): Don't emit EH unwind info for leaves.
