This has the advantage that when one invocation of the handler fails of a `ClassFileError`, other invocations for other class files can proceed, and the exception handler has sufficient information to report a useful message indicating the source of error.

Inspection into the files reveal that proguard incorrectly deleted the simple class names with trailing `$`, for example, the original signature of the broken ParArray was `Lscala/collection/parallel/mutable/ParArray<TT;>.ParArrayIterator$;`, so the `ParArrayIterator$` part was incorrectly dropped by proguard.
