Title: address "this would catch all throwables" warnings

original patch by @odersky in #955 -- criterion for the refactor:
"catch Throwable as long as there's no obvious control flow exception going through the catch
and the caught exception is processed further"

rebased & updated with review comments in #955 and #954
