Well, build_exception_object_ref looks like it is not going to work when
generating bytecode, yet I see it called various places where it looks
like it could get called when generating bytecode.

At some future point it might be nice to be able to generate bytecode
and native code at the same time.  (It would speed up building libjava,
for one.)  So I prefer solutions where any tests for flag_emit_class_files
are *not* done while build trees or syntax analysis, but handled at
expand time.  Burt I wouldn't worry too much about this - there are
plenty of places that violate this goal, and it is possible we might
never be interested in dual-mode output.
