Maybe it raises a different exception, in the first example you only
catch the EOutOfMemory.

from the manual: "If none of the On handlers matches the exception
object type, then the statement list after else is executed. If no such
list is found, then the exception is automatically re-raised. "

This means if it is not an EOutOfMemory then it will re-raise the exception.
