Even though it doesn't fully resolve this crash, I'd still like us to consider reverting the change to allow "continue" in try/finally blocks.

It doesn't seem to have a compelling practical motivation behind it (beyond the fact that it's nice not to impose arbitrary restriction on users), and even if it's feasible in CPython now, it still creates a non-trivial amount of work for other Python implementations that are trying to remain consistent with what CPython allows.
