STD: Debugger hangs when step over inside finally block

*Test case:


J20i_MyThread.java
=================================================================

class J20i_MyThread extends Thread {


public void run() {
try {
for(;;) System.out.println("Forever...");
}
catch (ThreadDeath e ) {
System.out.println("catch in Thread run()..."); //put a break point here; stop here after invoking stop() //LOC:TC0001.01
throw e;
}
finally {
System.out.println("finally in Thread");

}
}

}
=================================================================



J20i_Thread.java
=================================================================

class J20i_Thread {


 public static void main(String[] args) {

try {
System.out.println("main...");
J20i_MyThread oJ20i_MyThread1 = new J20i_MyThread();
oJ20i_MyThread1.start();
Thread.sleep(100); //Let the oJ20i_MyThread1 run for a while
oJ20i_MyThread1.stop(); //LOC:TC0001.02 //Put a breakpoint here, and stepover
//put another breakpoint at the catch(ThreadDeath) handler
//The "future" execution point will be the catch(ThreadDeath) handler
//Note: the catch handler may NOT be the immediate next step
}

catch (InterruptedException e) {} //for Thread's sleep()

finally {
System.out.println("finally in main()...");
}
System.out.println("After finally in main()...");
 }

}

*Steps to reproduce the problem:

jdb J20i_Thread
stop in J20i_Thread.main
run
stop at J20i_Thread:14
cont
next
next
next


The first 'next' will usually hang jdb. Sometimes, the 3rd next never
completes.

*Output:

P:\defects\6933>jdb J20i_Thread
Initializing jdb...
0x10803a8:class(J20i_Thread)
> stop in J20i_Thread.main

> run

Breakpoint hit: J20i_Thread.main (J20i_Thread:10)
