Hello Squeakers,

A new release of the TFEI ANSI Exception Handling System is available at
     http://www.4thEstate.com/apps/squeak.html

The changes fix three b-bbb-bbbbugs that have been discovered.

1.  Exception>>findHandlerFrom: and Exception>>handlerAction were
modified to avoid re-evaluating an exception handler which has already
been evaluated (bug reported by Stephen Pair).

2.  Default "fall off the end" handler action was out of spec (reported
by Allen Wirfs-Brock).

3.  Exception>>pass wasn't right in the case of a resumable
defaultAction (contrary to the spec, it was returning control to the
handler).

The new version has been tested on a Squeak 2.5 image.

On behalf of the coding team at The Fourth Estate, Inc.,

Thanks,

John Sarkela
CTO The Fourth Estate, Inc.
