Yes. Kaffe assumed that the bytecode instruction at the end of
an exception handler range would have a corresponding valid native pc.
However, only bytecode instructions that already emit native instructions
have a valid native pc. Nop is not among them.
My fix is to simply skip bytecode instructions until I find one that has
a valid native pc.
