If you return inside a scopeguard though, the exception (or

The scope guard will not 'swallow' it, if you use -release mode.
Which suggests to me, that assert(0) operates differently when
'not' using -release mode.
My 'guess' is, that release mode issues a halt instruction,
whereas in non-release mode it is just an exception like any
other exception.
Apologies. I chose assert(0) just to show that it catches Errors
too, so just replace it with throw new Exception and it behaves
the same without opening that can of worms.
