REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
/* One.java */
package one;
import static one.Two.three;
public class One<A> { }

/* Two.java */
package one;
public class Two<B> extends One<B> {
    public static Object three;
}
---------- END SOURCE ----------

CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
  From what I can tell, the problem is only encountered when using static imports, and when a class has the same (case-insensitive) name as a package in which it resides. Avoiding either of these situations is sufficient to work around this bug.
