PHP Fatal error: Uncaught exception... when services_error

Whenever i try and get a view/node/search etc and get a services_error, I get the php error below. For instance, trying to get a view that doesn't exist, or search for a term with no results.

heres the error in full for an unsuccessful search:

heres the error for trying to get a view that doesn't exist:

Is the amfphp module handling service errors correctly?
For clarity here's the code in search_service.inc in services module that is partially included in the stack trace:

// this is at the end of the search_service_nodes and search_service_users function, the above example looks at the node search
return services_error(t('Search returned no results.'));

The views_service.inc has this error that should be returned - but its returning 'access denied' instead

return services_error('View does not exist.');
