The Log.initialized() method catches NoClassDefFound and Exception when trying to find if Slf4j is on the classpath or not. Unfortunately, sometimes a different Throwable is thrown instead. Eg on Android, it is a VerifyError.

Change to catch Throwable and rethrow if it is ThreadDeath.

Fixed for 7.4.0.
