It's inefficient to have place the exception tables (which contain the LSDA)

into the __DATA section. At launch time, dyld has to update most of the section
to fix up the type info pointers. It's better to place it into the __TEXT
section and use pc-rel indirect pointer encodings. Similar to the personality
routine.
