Dart editor goes into infinite loop if an exception is thrown in toString()

This program causes the Dart editor to go into an infinite loop.

class Foo {
  String toString() { throw new Exception("oops"); }
}

void main() {
  new Foo().toString();
}

I'm guessing it's because the debugger itself calls toString(), which causes another exception, dropping the program into the debugger again.

Dart Editor version 0.6.15_r25822
Dart SDK version 0.6.15.3_r25822

Thanks for the report! I believe this was actually fixed earlier in the week, in https://code.google.com/p/dart/source/detail?r=25961. I can't repro the issue now w/ your test case. The fix will be in the next weekly (hopefully Monday) release.
