The following new api test fails on JDK1.5.0-b29:
api/java_util/EnumSet/index.html#range[range001]

The API specification of the method EnumSet.range reads:
  "IllegalArgumentException - if first.compareTo(last) > 0"
  
However RI does not throw an exception.

The following simple test can be used to reproduce the failure:
===============================test.java=======================
import java.util.EnumSet;

public class test {
    public static void main(String[] argv) {
        EnumSet.range(simpleEnum.LAST, simpleEnum.FIRST);
        System.out.println("COMPARE:" +
            simpleEnum.LAST.compareTo(simpleEnum.FIRST));
    }
}
===========================simpleEnum.java=====================
public enum simpleEnum { FIRST, LAST }
===============================================================
$ javac -d . -source 1.5 test.java simpleEnum.java
$ java -version
java version "1.5.0-beta"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0-beta-b29)
Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 1.5.0-beta-b29, mixed mode)
$ java -cp . test
COMPARE:1
$

As we see no exception is thrown.
