Rather than add an exception handler, the simple fix is to replace JRT_BLOCK with JRT_BLOCK_NO_ASYNC so that counter_overflow doesn't need to deal with async exceptions.  The GC poll point for backwards branches is sufficient to allow async exceptions.

I considered that, but it seemed slightly risky to do that now with Rampdown Phase One coming soon, so I thought waiting until after the fork so it goes into jdk26 would be better.  What do you think about the risk of doing it now?
