When you pass a non-existent option to the "get_options" method in Getopt::Obj, it tries to clear a non-existent exception handler at the end of the method and dies. (I discovered this by accident, when I mistyped the "output" option as "outfile". ) $ parrot tgc.pir --outfile=dummy.pir ../../examples/tge/branch/branch.g No exception to pop. current instr.: 'Getopt::Obj :: get_options' pc 759 (/Volumes/ lilalUFS/projects/svk/parrot/runtime/parrot/library/Getopt/Obj.pir: 344)called from Sub 'main' pc 45 (tgc.pir:51) Looks like more exceptions are being thrown than the author expects, but I don't have time to look into it further at the moment.
