Structured Exception Handling added around Tcl_Finalize called from
DllMain's DLL_PROCESS_DETACH. We can't 100% assured that Tcl is being unloaded by the OS in a stable condition and we need to protect the exit handlers should the stack be in a hosed state. AT&T style assembly for SEH under MinGW has not been added yet. This is a first part change for [Patch 858493]
