I'm not sure if this is a bug or not, but it sure looks like one.
I wrote some code like this:
public class MyPanel extends JPanel {
public Component add(Component c) {
doSomeStuff();
return add(c); // This is incorrect on purpose
}
}
I know the line I've commented is incorrect (it should say super.add(c)).
When this code is run, java_X bombs out with SIGILL and dumps core. I'm
thinking that it should instead die with StackOverflowError. I can reproduce
this very easily, with code very much like the above.
{13}{vince@moe}$ java -version
java_X version "1.1.8"
{14}{vince@moe}$ uname -a

Of course the answer might just be 'So don't do that.'. But I thought I'd post
anyway.
