      The section "4.1 ClassFile" of JVM spec says:

      For the Java virtual machine implementations of
      Sun's Java Developer's Kit (JDK) releases 1.0.2, 1.1.X,
      and 1.2 the value of major_version is 45 and the value
      of minor_version is 3. Only Sun may define the meaning
      of new class file version numbers.

      However VM (JDK1.2fcsJ) allows class file version different than 45.3
      (for example 45.100).

      To reproduce run JCK 1.2beta4 test
        vm/classfmt/clf/clfver001/clfver00101m1/clfver00101m1.html
      The test tries to load class with class file version 45.100.

      We know about discussion on class file version, but we have not
      JVM Spec update and we need bug number to exclude the test.
