java.lang.Object and java.lang.Class are special and belong to the
implementation. You can't make your own versions of them. Why are
you trying to do this?
I agree the compiler shouldn't crash. It should print some nice
error. However, I don't think this is very important, either, since
people shouldn't do this.
