Delphi 7 Dunit checks after StopExpectingException are not working as I expect

The below code works fine, the calc... generates an exception, comment it out or change calc... to not throw and exception and the test fails.

  StartExpectingException(exception);
  calcMembersPIPEndDate(EncodeDate(2005,01,01),true);
  StopExpectingException('calcMembersPIPEndDate - 1st after aDay');

My problem is that any checks I put in this test method after this do not execute.
so

  checkEquals(1,0);
  StartExpectingException(exception);
  calcMembersPIPEndDate(EncodeDate(2005,01,01),true);
  StopExpectingException('calcMembersPIPEndDate - 1st after aDay');

fails on the 1st checkEquals

  StartExpectingException(exception);
  calcMembersPIPEndDate(EncodeDate(2005,01,01),true);
  StopExpectingException('calcMembersPIPEndDate - 1st after aDay');
  checkEquals(1,0);

passes - why?

I have tried to work out what version of Dunit I am using:

testframework.pas has the following - which didn't seem to 
rcs_id: string = '#(@)$Id: TestFramework.pas,v 1.117 2006/07/19 02:45:55
rcs_version : string = '$Revision: 1.117 $';
versioninfo.inc
ReleaseNo : array[1..3] of Integer
          = (9,2,1);
ReleaseStr     = '9.2.1';
ReleaseWhen : array[1..6] of Integer
          = (2005,09,25,17,30,00);
