Comment (by ticktoo):

 The problem is not to generate a warning. The problem is to generate
 Warnings within an infinite loop until the PHP MAX_EXECUTION_TIME takes
 effect. This is a serious issue as I can't guess, which defective Plugins
 a customer has installed.

 So, am I right with my interpretation, that your point is, a 11GB Logfile
 full of catchable warnings caused by an infinite loop in one of your core
 component files is a valid behaviour?
