Subject: .class change in javac
To: Neal M Gafter <###@###.###>

Neal,

it seems that since the T&L integration yesterday the code javac
generates for the class literal has changed when -source 1.2 is used
(see below, where $J150 is tiger-b13 and $JHOME is a current build of
the master).

Is that intentional?

Andreas.
