New submission from ThePokestarFan <sarkarao...@gmail.com>:

If I set up a simple recursion exception function, that calls itself every time 
an error is raised, Python throws a SIGABRT and crashes due to a "Stack 
Overflow". 

def x():
    try:
        raise Exception()
    except Exception:
        x()

Oddly enough, my system installation of Python 2.7 threw a RuntimeError instead 
of aborting, which is what I expected.
