Test case for SF bugs #463359 and #462937, added to test_grammar for lack of

a better place. Excessively fragile code, but at least it breaks when
something in this area changes!

+# This test warrants an explanation. It is a test specifically for SF bugs
+# #463359 and #462937. The bug is that a 'break' statement executed or
+# exception raised inside a try/except inside a loop, *after* a continue
+# statement has been executed in that loop, will cause the wrong number of
+# arguments to be popped off the stack and the instruction pointer reset to
+# a very small number (usually 0.) Because of this, the following test
+# *must* written as a function, and the tracking vars *must* be function
+# arguments with default values. Otherwise, the test will loop and loop.
