Yeah. Folks, please run Jacks when you make gcj front-end changes.
I've seen a bunch of FAILs crop up; for Jacks we maintain an xfail
file that, in theory, encodes exactly what we know works and does not
work. The appearance of a new FAIL means that someone has made front
end changes without checking for regressions.

Does jikes generate a new static package-private inner class of the
interface in this situation? Ugh.
