Sure thing.

To see the bug, file the code below into a clean image and run the example.�� The when the debugger pops, step over each line in the method.�� I'm doing this on a Windows OS.

Object subclass: #Cooler
�� instanceVariableNames: ''
�� classVariableNames: ''
�� poolDictionaries: ''
�� category: 'ImageFreeze'!

!Cooler methodsFor: 'as yet unclassified' stamp: 'CraigJohnson 6/1/2015 23:31'!
runMe
�� |�� a |
�� self halt.
�� self except.
�� a := 1.! !

"-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- "!

Cooler class
�� instanceVariableNames: ''!

!Cooler class methodsFor: 'as yet unclassified' stamp: 'CraigJohnson 6/1/2015 23:16'!
example
�� self new runMe ! !

This worked until pharo 40245

-> it looks like phase4 in issue

11996

Wrong exception handler problem

introduced this behavior.

well�� pharo4 is not a beta :)
weird that no one else reports same bug�� can you give us a way to reproduce the problem? Instead telling you which image does not have a problem I was not aware, I would like more to give you a bugfix :)

Hi All,

I'm getting tired of Pharo 4 beta freezing.�� It happens whenever a exception occurs while in the debugger.

Funny that I don't remember any of the Pharo 4 development images freezing.

Which image can I use that won't do this?
