Hi,

the issue you are noticing here is that pdata information differs
between different archtiectures.  The first you have shown here is the
definition of the spark,mips, and (IIRC) arm architecture.  The second
one you've shown is the definition of pdata for x64 architecture.  For
x86 itself there is no pdata-information present, as x86 is using
stack-based SEH support, and not table-based one as other
architectures.

Regards,
Kai
