Note that RT-15332 added the uncaught exception handling capability. See also RT-30579 for another issue that was fixed in this area.

This is not a regression, and certainly not a P1 bug. Objectively is a P4 (medium priority) bug, so I am fixing the priority to match. Note that the exception cannot be delivered to the user code except as an uncaught exception. We have other cases where we do that, and should probably expand it to include this case. We will look at it for 8u40.
