As you guessed, it's going up the stack to the exception handler.  

It is confusing because the debugger automatically appends the 
exception stack to the current stack (this is needed because of 
how exceptions work in general) so it appears to stay on the same 
line when it really is not.

We'll try to fix this and/or add away to step out of the 
exception handler in one operation.
