NOTE: This is a bug in 1.1.6, but the bugreport form didn't let me enter th=
at...

Symantecs JIT seems to optimize away important code. The code below, compil=
ed
using the standard javac, demonstrates a bug in the JIT on my computer (NT4=
/sp3).

Excuse the poor formatting...

public class JitBug
{
    public static void test(long param) {
=09long a =3D param;=20
=09long smallNumber =3D 1;=20
       =20
        boolean large =3D param > smallNumber;
        if (!large)=20
            System.out.println("Small number.");
        else=20
            System.out.println("Large number. Should be OK.");
       =20
        if (a < smallNumber)
=09=09a *=3D 100;
=09=09
        // remove the next line to see another bug.
=09=09if (large && a !=3D param) System.out.println("\nJit error!!!\n");
=09=09
=09=09System.out.println(a + " and " + param + " should be equal.");
    }
   =20
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        test(19980910120545L); // this works
=09=09test(21030101000001L); // this doesn't
    }
