Does anyone know what happened with Herb's idea for zero-overhead exceptions?

I remember liking the idea when he presented it at CppCon (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ARYP83yNAWk).

Both the C++ paper and the variants of it for C are blocked from lacking implementation experience. The C papers had other flaws too and the initial paper (written by the lcc-win32 maintainer) was outright rejected. To be fair it's not a trivial thing to implement nor to specify.
