One quick thing you might be able to do is use t.i.task.deferLater
instead of reactor.callLater, like so:
def doStuff():
breakobj = Break()
d = task.deferLater(reactor, 2, breakobj)
return d
task.deferLater will schedule the call, but runs the call in a context
which means any exceptions raised flow down the deferred errback. This:
@inlineCallbacks
def loop():
try:
yield doStuff()
except Exception, e:
log.err(e)
...will then work, and "see" the exception.
