If regions do overlap, then they should be ordered from inner-most scope to 
outer-most, so that inner regions are encountered first when the handlers are 
scanned.

The code in OutputExceptionTable tries to serialize these relationships into a 
set of consequetive areas, but I suppose it would be possible to output 
overlapping regions as long as the correct ordering is maintained.
