Hi Pekko Team,

Are there any plans to fix this bug in Pekko?

Thank you

Issue may relate to akka/akka#27614. There is a reproduction test in https://discuss.lightbend.com/t/expected-behavior-when-child-actor-throws-an-exception-during-pre-start/10753/3

If anyone attempts a PR for this - please do not look at the Akka PR. Any Pekko PR will need to be a clean room fix implemented by the PR submitter. The test case in https://discuss.lightbend.com is probably ok to use but it may be worth asking the person who wrote it to give explicit permission for its use in Pekko.

I think we should consider backporting the fix to 1.0.x branch.

all merge requests have been backported to 1.0.x, should we close this?
