It's a bit confusing (at least to me) what do you want. Do you want to implement handling of exceptions or the whole mechanism in your compiler?
Recently I was exploring this topic, so I will list some interesting links:
* Stack unwinding, landing pads, and other catches
* C++ exception (2) — throwing an exception
* C++ exception handling ABI
* Itanium C++ abi - Exception Handling Tables
