I dont have the text of the error anymore, but in java/io/ObjectInputStream,
there are a bunch of constants TC_STRING etc, declared in
ObjectStreamConstants. The compiler was complaining that they wern't a valid
type for a switch, or something like that. After applying the PR209 patch (to
the latest compiler), everything builds fine.
