A class has a recursive routine `f' which at the depths of its recursion calls a routine `weasel' which raises an exception. Routine `weasel' has a rescue clause which first calls `f' and then retries and succeeds. When the system is executed, it dies with a panic (segmentation fault) if the depth of "exception in rescue clause" nesting is greater than 256. Discovered in Release 3.2.4.
