Used try block to allow NOT_SUPPORTED_ERR (5.79 KB, patch)

level3/core/nodeinsertbefore05
level4/core/getdoctype01

Implementations are not required to support doctype replacement through
childNode access, so either of these could raise NOT_SUPPORTED_ERR. Also in the
case of nodeinsertbefore05, the doctype node to be inserted is already owned by
another document, so the attempt can generate a WRONG_DOCUMENT_ERR.
