Yes, I understand at which insn exception happens.

I meant that *the message* is not generated by Wine or kernel.
grep for "Unhandled exception:" comes up empty
on their source trees.

After much grepping, I see that I'm wrong.
It does come from wine:

void info_win32_exception(void)
{
    const EXCEPTION_RECORD*     rec;
    ADDRESS64                   addr;
    char                        hexbuf[MAX_OFFSET_TO_STR_LEN];

    if (!dbg_curr_thread->in_exception)
    {
        dbg_printf("Thread isn't in an exception\n");
        return;
    }
    rec = &dbg_curr_thread->excpt_record;
    memory_get_current_pc(&addr);

    /* print some infos */
    dbg_printf("%s: ",
               dbg_curr_thread->first_chance ? "First chance exception" : "Unhandled exception");
    switch (rec->ExceptionCode)
    {
    case EXCEPTION_BREAKPOINT:
        dbg_printf("breakpoint");
        break;
    case EXCEPTION_SINGLE_STEP:
        dbg_printf("single step");
        break;
    case EXCEPTION_INT_DIVIDE_BY_ZERO:
        dbg_printf("divide by zero");
        break;
    case EXCEPTION_INT_OVERFLOW:
        dbg_printf("overflow");
        break;
    case EXCEPTION_ARRAY_BOUNDS_EXCEEDED:
        dbg_printf("array bounds");
        break;
    case EXCEPTION_ILLEGAL_INSTRUCTION:
        dbg_printf("illegal instruction");
        break;
    case EXCEPTION_STACK_OVERFLOW:
        dbg_printf("stack overflow");
        break;
    ...

I hoped we can easily make Wine show exception's error code.
Not that easy :/
