retry

Do any languages that support retry constructs in exception handling track and expose the number of times their catch/rescue (and/or try/begin) blocks have been executed in a particular run?

I find myself counting (and limiting) the number of times a code block is re-executed after an exception often enough that this would be a handy language built-in.
