    /**
     * Skip characters.
     *
     * @param n The number of characters to skip
     *
     * @return The number of characters actually skipped
     *
     * @exception IOException If an I/O error occurs

Problem description
===================
Javadoc for method of class java.io.LineNumberReader
public long skip(long n) throws IOException
does not declare IllegalArgumentException that method throws
if parameter value is negative long. It should be fixed.
