Comment(by NotFound):

 I think that throwing a exception with severity EXCEPT_fatal will be more
 appropiate. Throwing or rethrowing a null is not such an abnormal
 situation that requires killing the interpreter/thread/whatever.
 EXCEPT_fatal seems fatal enough.

 BTW the throw P opcode sets the attribute "resume" in the exception before
 throwing, it causing an NULL PMC exception, so this patch can't catch all
 cases.
