/**
 * This Exception is thrown when more than one Composite implements a MixinType
 * that one tries to use to create a Composite instance from.
 * <p>
 * For instance;
 * </p>
 * <code><pre>
 * public interface AbcComposite extends TransientComposite, Abc
 * {}
 *
 * public interface DefComposite extends TransientComposite, Def
 * {}
 *
 * public interface Abc
 * {}
 *
 * public interface Def extends Abc
 * {}
 *
 *
 * TransientBuilder cb = factory.newTransientBuilder( Abc.class );
 * </pre></code>
 * <p>
 * In the code above, both the AbcComposite and DefComposite implement Abc, and therefore
 * the <code>newTransientBuilder</code> method can not unambiguously figure out which
 * one is intended.
 * </p>
