[New-bugs-announce] [issue4597] EvalFrameEx fails to set 'why' for some exceptions

[Jeffrey Yasskin]

New submission from Jeffrey Yasskin <jyasskin at gmail.com>:

Several opcodes that can raise an exception fail to set x, err, or why
afterward. This patch fixes all the examples I could find. I could only
figure out how to write a test for PRINT_NEWLINE; the others are hard to
trigger.
