Catch block not hit in unittest

Hello,
I am trying to assert the fact that a UnicodeException is thrown
by the piece of code added in this PR:
https://github.com/dlang/druntime/pull/1696/files
The unittest is in druntime/src/rt/lifetime.d:
unittest
{
import core.exception : UnicodeException;
try
{
string ret;
int i = -1;
ret ~= i;
}
catch(UnicodeException e)
{
assert(e.msg == "Invalid UTF-8 sequence");
}
}
However running the tests for druntime fails because the
exception is not caught:
****** FAIL release64 rt.lifetime
core.exception.UnicodeException at src/rt/lifetime.d(2031): Invalid
UTF-8 sequence
I tried to use the same code as in the unittest above in a
regular D source file and the UnicodeException was properly
caught there.
Do you know what the problem might be?
Thank you,
Lucia
