Yes, thanks, but maybe not quite since mine can handle specific
exceptions and, with a slight modification to the code I supplied, it
can provide the exception which caused the block to exit prematurely.
ifCurtailed: is implemented as a primitive so I'm not sure how to build
off of it to get those features. The former feature probably isn't so
useful since most of the time this "unwind" semantics is only needed for
catch-all error handlers like ifCurtailed: provides.
