It is currently broken. Currently the biggest breakage is the RPC layer
that swallows them in a really evil way. We need to fix that, but it is
a big job. In particular, all of the methods in all of the protocols
need to have InterruptedExceptions added to their signatures. That is
pretty painful.
I can see the appeal of an InterruptedIOException that extends
IOException, but its really just damage limitation. Changing the
signatures would be better
