I'm not interested in having this move forward.  AFAICT it doesn't solve any 
known user problems (no one has cared about this before or since this issue was 
opened).  It slightly slows the code.  And it might break some existing code 
that wasn't previously a need to catch an OverflowError.

Marking this as closed.  If someone thinks this is really needed, feel free to 
reopen.
