ISTR that ORP had an optimization where it would avoid filling in the
stack trace if it knew that the exception object was dead.  I think a
patch for this would not be reasonable, as long as it played well with
other VMs and had a big explanatory comment.

That's a neat idea.. I hadn't thought of that.
