r=me with fix.

I think it's a hack that we return an OOME when we fail to create the requested Error object.  I suspect that this is a semantic error because:

    var error = new RangeError();
    error.toString()l // expects "RangeError", but may get "Out of memory".

Anyway, that was a pre-existing thing and can be fixed later.  For this patch, you also need to placate the exception validator before the call to tryMakeString() below.  The way to do this is to add the following before the "if (!valueDescription)" above:
    ASSERT(scope.exception() || valueDescription);

The assertion tickles scope.exception(), thereby telling the validator that we did something with the exception.  This placates the validator.  Note: the assertion assumes that we will never return a null string unless there's no exception.  If that's not the case, just do a real exception check instead.

You also need to clear the exception because you’re in a CatchScope here.
