in the executable to call. Normally these functions are provided by the standard
library, but without it you must define your own.

The first of these two functions, `eh_personality`, is used by the
failure mechanisms of the compiler. This is often mapped to GCC's
personality function (see the
[libstd implementation](../std/rt/unwind/index.html) for more
information), but crates which do not trigger a panic can be assured
that this function is never called. The second function, `panic_fmt`, is
also used by the failure mechanisms of the compiler.
