    Out of interest, why catch `Throwable`? We immediately do a 
`Exceptions.propagateIfFatal(e)` so if it was an `Error` then we'd rethrow 
immediately (as though we hadn't caught). Are there other throwable types that 
we're hitting?
    
    (I'm fine with the change; just want to know what throwables we should 
expect to encounter).
