[issue6028] Interpreter crashes when chaining an infinite number of exceptions

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou <pitrou at free.fr> added the comment:

This is normal behaviour, actually. The RuntimeError *is* raised, but
you catch it in the except clause and then recurse again ad infinitum.
The interpreter realizes that it "cannot recover from stack overflow",
as the message says, and then bails out.
