You probably already know this, but it is possible (and quite simple)
to rewrite the java.util collections classes from Classpath so that
(almost) no inner class code is used. (An exception is Map.Entry.) This
is what I did for Gnome-GCJ. That way I was able to use LinkedList
and HashMap. At least it is a temporary fix.
