There are two attached java source classes that cause the Signature test tool to fail when the tool is running in debug mode and enabled Java assertions (with -ea VM option).

Steps to reproduce:

1. Compile a source file:

<ag153348@zenit> mkdir classes
<ag153348@zenit> javac -d classes clss44701.java

2. Run the signature setup as follows:

<ag153348@zenit> java -version
java version "1.6.0"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0-b105)
Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 1.6.0-b105, mixed mode)
<ag153348@zenit> which java
/set/java/re/jdk/6.0/latest/binaries/solaris-amd64/bin/java

Note if the debug option is not specified, the assertion exception will not be thrown.
