An addendum:
This causes (at least on my i686-pc-linux-gnu box)
the following changes in Jacks testresults:
 XPASS: non-jls-argument-expansion-13
 FAIL: non-jls-argument-expansion-error-1
For the latter case, GCJ does issue a warning:
- ------------------------- 8< -------------------------
~/src/tmp > cat foo
Hello.java
~/src/tmp > $MYGCJ -C Hello.java @foo
Hello.java:0: warning: duplicate class will only be compiled once
~/src/tmp > echo $?
0
- ------------------------- 8< -------------------------
but apparently the testcase expects it to error out. :-/
Thanks,
Ranjit.
