> This method:
> org.drools.compiler.kie.builder.impl.KieRepositoryImpl.KieScannerHolder#getInternalKieScanner
> throws an NPE when starting an example in optaplanner-examples.
> That NPE is then immediately caught by line 88 by the catch-all-exceptions, but meanwhile it has stopped my debugger NPE breakpoint, which is pita. *Exceptions should not be used for flow control.*
