Out of curiosity: what is the problem with specifying epilogue? Am I wrong when I say that there can be only so many epilogue types (i.e. compiler will not generate infinite number of epilogues)? Therefore, only one index in a 'epilogue description table' would suffice...

(or am I over-simplifying?)
