Well, the problem being that the first time around we're 
interested in finding *handlers* that are not reachable.

	struct vector { ~vector(); };

	void foo()
	{
	  try {

	    try {
	      vector x, y, z;
	      throw 0;
	    } catch (int) {
	    }

	  } catch (int) {
	    link_error();
	  }
	}

This is going to have to look backward through three
cleanups back to the actual handlers.  If we stop with
the first cleanup, we'll not be able to see any of this.

Perhaps there's a better way to do what I'm doing though...
