    20   * Thrown by InstructionList.remove() when one or multiple disposed instruction
    21   * are still being referenced by a InstructionTargeter object. I.e. the
    22   * InstructionTargeter has to be notified that (one of) the InstructionHandle it
    23   * is referencing is being removed from the InstructionList and thus not valid anymore.
    24   *
    25   * Making this an exception instead of a return value forces the user to handle
    26   * these case explicitely in a try { ... } catch. The following code illustrates
    27   * how this may be done:
    28   *
    29   * <PRE>
    30   *     ...
    31   *     try {
    32   *	il.delete(start_ih, end_ih);
    33   *     } catch(TargetLostException e) {
    34   *       InstructionHandle[] targets = e.getTargets();
    35   *	 for(int i=0; i < targets.length; i++) {
    36   *	   InstructionTargeter[] targeters = targets[i].getTargeters();
    37   *
    38   *	   for(int j=0; j < targeters.length; j++)
    39   *	     targeters[j].updateTarget(targets[i], new_target);
    40   *       }
