@aarondav That's what I thought too when looking at the Akka code, and
that's why I closed the JIRA for a while. After writing some test code,
though, it really didn't look to me like the uncaught exception handler was
effective for the scheduled functions, so I re-opened 1620 and created
https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/622. However, I'm still not clear on just
why I'm seeing the behavior (or lack thereof) that I am, so I'd certainly
welcome any insights you can arrive at by looking deeper.
