My post was not related in any way to asynchronous exceptions. It's just 
the everlasting issue of the distinction of programming errors and 
exceptions.

I'm trying that for years now, repeatedly in this mailing list and on the 
Wiki:
   http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Error
   http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Exception
  I don't know how I can make it still clearer. It's just like concurrency 
vs. parallelism - somehow related, but it is important to distinguish 
them.
