You don't want an error inside the error handler calling the error handler.
Perhaps the best thing to do in that case is revert to the current default
error handling. Spit out an error message and kill the script.

I think that seems to be the most sensible thing to do.

How do programming languages with try/catch handle generation of an
exception inside the catch block?

It behaves the same way an exception thrown without it - it goes up the
stack until caught at a higher level, if one exists.
