Compiler / Framework bug?

[Thomee Wright]

How to reproduce:

Create a new Visual C++ CLR Empty Project
Add a new C++ with the following:

int main (array<System::String^> ^args)
{
//bool workaround = true;
while (true)
{
try { }
catch(...) { }
}
}

Expected result: program runs forever without doing anything
Actual result: program gets a stack overflow exception in 1-2 seconds
Workaround: uncomment the workaround line
