If we catch `Throwable`, on the other hand, then I think that we'll end up clearing the `isInterrupted` bit for `InterruptedException`s and it'll be awkward to match and re-set it when rethrowing. Therefore I'd like to keep the exception-handling case in the `finally` block with a simple check to see if we entered that block via an error case. Note that I've seen this same exception-handling idiom used in Java code, where code that catches and re-throws `Throwable` won't compile in older Java versions because of the checked exception-handling (I think that newer versions are a bit more permissive about throwing exceptions from a `catch` block).
