I don't think so.  It seems like a useful exercise if you want to start.

Expect arguments about whether "exceptions" require run-time support.

Expect arguments about whether it means "headers that are forbidden from
requiring run-time support" or "headers that could be implemented
without using run-time support".

Perhaps "header" is too coarse a granularity?

... but, I repeat, it still sounds like a broadly worthwhile exercise.
