This is almost certainly an older version of gij with a buggy verifier.
For this problem, the verifier in 3.4 should work ok. (There are
other bugs for which you would need an even newer version.)
If you're already running 3.4, then that's news... you could also
turn off the verifier easily enough, if you can recompile libgcj.
Just comment out the body of _Jv_VerifyMethod in libjava/verify.cc.
We should probably have some command-line control over this. I
believe the JDK doesn't bother verifying classes that come from the
class path.

You may need to set `build.compiler' to `gcj' to circumvent this error.
