Bug report

Bug description:

Throwing an exception during an implicit cast to a boolean as part of a logical operation (or, and) bypasses surrounding try/except statements.

The following example works on Python 3.12.3 but fails on Python 3.14.0rc1:

Example:

class Foo:
  def __bool__(self):
    raise NotImplementedError()

a = Foo()
b = Foo()

# Works
try:
  c = bool(a)
except:
  print("passed c = bool(a)")

# Fails
try:
  c = a or b
except:
  print("passed c = a or b")

Output on Python 3.12.3 (expected behavior):

passed c = bool(a)
passed c = a or b

Output on Python 3.14.0rc1:

passed c = bool(a)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/justinfu/code/test_bool.py", line 15, in <module>
    c = a or b
        ^^^^^^
  File "/Users/justinfu/code/test_bool.py", line 3, in __bool__
    raise NotImplementedError()
NotImplementedError
