It will be better if compiler will provide more accurate error
             message and indication of the error for the following illegal
             array creation expression:
             long[] ia = new long[5L]
 
Test:
-----

package javasoft.sqe.tests.lang.lex000.lex00001;
import java.io.PrintStream;

class lex00001 {
public static void main (String args []) {
System.exit(run(args,System.out));
}

public static int run(String args[],PrintStream out) {
  long[] ia = new long[5L];
  ia[5L] = 5L;
  return 0;
}}

Now compiler issues the following error messages:

----------ref:compile.java(7/393)----------
/net/novo33/export/ld32/spn/java_tests/tests/lang/LEX/lex029/lex02901/lex02901.java:13: Incompatible type for new. Explicit cast needed to convert long to int.
  long[] ia = new long[5L];
              ^
/net/novo33/export/ld32/spn/java_tests/tests/lang/LEX/lex029/lex02901/lex02901.java:14: Incompatible type for []. Explicit cast needed to convert long to int.
  ia[5L] = 5L;
    ^
2 errors

Second error message is good, but first message and indication of the first error
are not accurate. It may be difficult for user to understand this diagnostics.
