Bug #6983 Exception stack trace lost when re-throwing exceptions

Description:
Hi,
in the source there are fragments like:

catch(Exception ex)
{
   do something;
   throw ex;
}

This leads to the exception losing its stack trace. To fix it, replace 'throw ex;' with just 'throw;'. (See http://dotnetguy.techieswithcats.com/archives/004118.shtml)

How to repeat:
Print a stack trace of any exception that is re-thrown in the above clause.

Suggested fix:
See description

Not verified with running code but from reading the linked  
article i'd say the request is valid
