> There are 70 odd classes in the generic directory that have empty
> constructors with the following comment:
> * Empty constructor needed for the Class.newInstance() statement in
> * Instruction.readInstruction(). Not to be used otherwise.
> Class.newInstance() is no longer called, the empty constructors are
> referenced directly. Perhaps the comment should just read:
> * Empty constructor needed Instruction.readInstruction().
> * Not to be used otherwise.
