The true/false return protocol doesn't prevent exceptions to be thrown from
the trap. It's perfectly fine for the dead object proxy's preventExtensions
trap to throw an "object is dead" exception. In fact, that's precisely what
would happen if one would call preventExtensions on a revoked revocable
proxy.
