Thanks for fixing this, also from me!

However I am a little concerned that the try/catch slows down comparison (at least in theory) and thus sorting. I didn't look it up (yet), but I guess that throwing/raising an exception during comparison is actually undefined behavior in CPython and Java. So maybe it would have been better to adjust the test (at least keep this in mind if the Java-issue gets fixed).

(On the other hand I agree this might not be significant compared to other performance issues in Jython.)
