I really want to figure out how widespread issues are so I merged the workaround and my version of the error handling patch so we start seeing where the remaining problems are (if any). I'm hoping to test this out on the autobuilder, see how we stand. If further improvements are found to the workaround we can merge those on top of the existing tree.
