What's that?

Google turns up these:

https://www.google.com/patents/US5628016

https://www.google.com/patents/US6247169

https://patents.google.com/patent/US20070016894A1

I'm not sure about the last one since it's an apparently abandoned application rather than a granted patent...

Interestingly, US6247169 reports "lapsed" on the google page due to non-payment of fees...

I'm really not sure what to make of US5628016 - it's filing date is in 1994, but there's a report of a 2015 "Assignment" legal event.

(edit - fixed links)

You already got answers for SEH. For Steensgard, see the paper at https://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/pingali/CS380C/2007fa/papers... (no idea about the patent itself, but the paper is probably easier to read).
SEH probably refers to Structured Exception Handling.
