> There are a few instances where the code catches Throwable, but fails to rethrow anything.
> For example:
> {code}
> org.apache.commons.scxml.io.SCXMLSerializer.getTransformer()
> ...
>         } catch (Throwable t) {
>             return null;
>         }
> {code}
> It would be safer if the code only caught the relevant Exception(s) (and perhaps some Errors).
> For example does it really make sense to catch OutOfMemory ?
> In particular, the Javadoc for ThreadDeath says:
> {quote} If ThreadDeath is caught by a method, it is important that it be rethrown so that the thread actually dies.
