Description Tom Tromey 2004-10-25 19:16:10 UTC 
gcj computes the type of the `itable' field of Class
differently from how the runtime declares this type.
This is confusing to the maintainer and potentially
fragile (depending on the vagaries of struct layout).
See http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/java-patches/2004-q4/msg00286.html
Comment 1 Andrew Pinski 2004-10-25 20:06:57 UTC 
Confirmed.
Comment 2 Andrew Pinski 2016-09-30 22:51:37 UTC 
Closing as won't fix as the Java front-end has been removed from the trunk.
