Public bug reported:

NUnit 2.5.9.10348

If AssertionException happens in a delegate provided to Assert.Throws()
the diagnostic message does display no details making it hard to know
which of asserts failed:

Test 'Test.Issue' failed: 
  Expected: <System.InvalidOperationException>
  But was:  <NUnit.Framework.AssertionException>

instead it would be good to display the assert message if
AssertionException was thrown like:

Test 'Test.Issue' failed: 
  Expected: <System.InvalidOperationException>
  But was:  <NUnit.Framework.AssertionException> ("Cannot start with zero")

plus the inner stack trace. Please see the test attached.
