In jdk build 1.4.0beta-b40 java.util.ArrayList class implements new interface
RandomAccess. This signature change was not approve by CCC and causes compatibility
problem, because this class has no serialVersionUID field and its value calculated on
class signature. Since jdk1.4 this value will be differ then expected and stream with
serialized java.util.ArrayList object will be incorrect. Please, send out corresponding
CCC request and define serialVersionUID field with appropriate value, or roll back this
change.
