     SyntaxError: 'continue' not supported inside 'finally' clause (<doctest test.test_syntax[41]>, line 8)
 
+There is one test for a break that is not in a loop.  The compiler
+uses a single data structure to keep track of try-finally and loops,
+so we need to be sure that a break is actually inside a loop.  If it
+isn't, there should be a syntax error.
