58  * Denote an instruction that may throw a run-time or a linking
59  * exception (or both) during execution. This is not quite the truth
60  * as such; because all instructions may throw an
61  * java.lang.VirtualMachineError. These exceptions are omitted.
62  *
63  * The Lava Language Specification specifies exactly which
64  * <i>RUN-TIME</i> and which <i>LINKING</i> exceptions each
65  * instruction may throw which is reflected by the implementers. Due
66  * to the structure of the JVM specification, it may be possible that
67  * an Instruction implementing this interface returns a Class[] of
68  * size 0.
69  *
70  * Please note that we speak of an "exception" here when we mean any
71  * "Throwable" object; so this term is equally used for "Exception"
72  * and "Error" objects.
