No, the point of handler-case* is exactly that it should call
maybe-invoke-debugger for /all/ conditions before they can be handled.
 Otherwise, the source code uses the standard handler-case (without
asterisk).

I think the question in the case of the problem you report is whether
there's some handler-case* that should rather be handler-case or
whether we're seeing some behavior we think is acceptable if
*catch-errors-p* is nil.

Cheers,
Edi.
