/**
 * A Panic object can be thrown when a non-recoverable error occurs and
 * the application requires a clean and immediate shutdown.
 *
 * For now the Panic error will execute System.exit(1) upon construction.
 * In the future we may catch Panic in main(...) and do the exit there.
 *
 * XXX: We may want to extend Throwable instead of Error but Jikes doesn't
 *      really grok that.
