I'm not sure what's up, but it looks like kepler fails to compile
under Java 1.4.1_01 for me under linux:

This is with a fresh tree.
Kepler compiles fine under Java 1.4.2_04 under Windows.
Perhaps this code only works under Java 1.4.2 and not 1.4.1?
I know there was some traffic about Java 1.5 as well on the mailing list,
I believe Kepler will compile under 1.5.
