If (false == true) executes block when throwing exception is inside

Question

I have a rather strange problem that is occurring.

This is my code:

private async Task BreakExpectedLogic()
{
    bool test = false;
    if (test ==

It seems to be the bug in async method, the code is not actually executed but debugger steps to the line with throw statement. If there are some lines of code before throw statement inside if these lines are ignored, debugger steps only to the line with throw statement.

Also, if you don't use variable - if (false) or if (true == false) then debugger steps to the correct line of code - to the closing curly brace.

This bug has been posted by @Matthew Watson to Visual Studio team (link is not available now).

Also, see similar question - Condition check in async method

EDIT (2017/10/06):

Issue cannot be reproduced in VS 2017 15.3.5 using .Net Framework 4.7. Seems like VS team has fixed this issue.
