timers: add v0.4 compatibility hack
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
If a timer callback throws and the user's uncaughtException handler ignores the
exception, other timers that expire on the current tick should still run.

If #2582 goes through, this hack should be removed.

Fixes #2631.
