Error: Non-static method overrides static method

I've noticed this too and forgot to report it (instead, I just patched
the offending source). It occurs in compiling the Mozilla integration of
SWT 3.0Mx
It seems that GCJ barfs if a subclass redeclares a method with the same
name as a static method in the base class. Under regular javac, this is 
allowed and is no problem (since you have to call the methods in two 
different ways).
Cheers,
Rob
