My apologies, sometimes my thought is too far ahead of my typing fingers. For the purpose of handling _one_ error, you need the CPER entry for that one error -- narrow context. You don't need the entire GHES structure -- wide context. Individual handlers should not be able to access the entire ghes. When the handlers are restricted to a common signature --which doesn't include ghes--, it's obvious when functions try to bite more than they can chew. Alex
