Seriously? You find a system with global events where you must perform your own resource book-keeping to clean up the correct resources nicer than structured exception handling?

Yes as soon as you have to support both 32 and 64 builds in a multi-threaded program that is using the C run time library. This of course is just my opinion :)
Why is SEH a problem in that case? SEH is occasionally flaky but much nicer than trying to handle SEGV.
