What would happen if an exception is thrown during the execution of finalize()? Is the stack unwind like normally? Does it continue finalize() and ignore the exception? Does it stop finalize() and continue GC the object? Or something else?

I'm not looking for guidelines of using finalize() there are plently of pages explaining that.
