   This approach does not work well with catch/throw. Because `throw` must   
   restore the values of all "local" variables that are used in the   
   definitions whose execution is being terminated. And this is difficult   
   to implement.   
      
      
   See also 13.3.3.1, item c,   
      
      
   | ABORT shall release all local storage resources,   
   | and CATCH / THROW (if implemented) shall release   
   | such resources for all definitions whose execution   
   | is being terminated.
