Thanks.
Looking at the .class files, I see that `javac' emits an abstract
method `f' for B, while `gcj -C' does not. So if gcj -C were changed
to emit this method, it would work fine. However, I don't know if
that is required. Maybe the bug is in the .class part of the front
end -- maybe that code is required to search implemented interfaces
for methods. I don't know.
