The issue here is that during `Parse::catch_inline_exceptions`, the old stack is gone, and we cannot reexecute the current bytecode anymore. However, there are some places where we try to insert safepoints into the graph, such as if the handler is a backward jump, or if one of the exceptions in the handlers is not loaded. Since the `_reexecute` state of the current jvms is "undefined", it is inferred automatically that it should reexecute for some bytecodes such as `putfield`. The solution then is to explicitly set `_reexecute` to false.

I find it hard to construct such a test in which one of them is not loaded.
