Summary: 2.5 incorrectly permits break inside try statement

Initial Comment:
The new AST compiler permits the break statement inside
*any* frame block, rather than requiring that there be
a loop somewhere on the block stack.

Will add examples in a comment where SF shouldn't
destroy the formatting.
