I have a Task that does not return anything. You can't do an Async.AwaitTask on such a Task, so you need to do an Async.AwaitIAsyncTask instead. Unfortunately this seems to just swallow any exceptions that the underlying Task throws out: -

```
TaskFactory().StartNew(Action(fun _ -> failwith "oops"))
|> Async.AwaitIAsyncResult
|> Async.Ignore
|> Async.RunSynchronously

// val it : unit = ()

```

On the other hand, AwaitTask correctly cascades the exception: -

```
TaskFactory().StartNew(fun _ -> failwith "oops"                               
                                5)
|> Async.AwaitTask
|> Async.Ignore
|> Async.RunSynchronously

// POP!

```

What's the best way of treating regular (non-generic) Tasks as Async yet still get propagation of exceptions?
