I agree.  We use inner classes extensively in our code, including
anonymous inner classes and it works fine.  However, it's possible that
Archie is running it through the Kaffe stress tests, which might show up
different bugs.

Note, if you use jikes Kaffe appears to have problems, but this has
already been reported to the Kaffe team.

ps. Archie, the modulo bug should be fixed in all subsequent releases of
FreeBSD.  Keith White tracked down the bug and I committed the fixes
recently.  If you are interested in a 'configure' solution for FreeBSD I
can tell you privately.
