custom runtime exception got translated to StatusCodeException

I got my server side code to throw custom exceptions for a long time
and have a lot of working code to copy from.

this time, I throw a ExpiredSessionException, it got translated to
StatusCodeException. and on the client side, caught.getMessage() is
this huge html fragment, starting with Http Error: 500. the whole
message is too big to display in the error dialog and is unsuitable
for users.

the only difference I can detect is
1. the ExpiredSessionException is not a declared exception,
2. it is throw during the service() call, instead of in one the rpc
methods.

I am not sure what is the cause for loosing my original Exception.

how can I get gwt to throw my own exception and not the
StatusCodeException?
