Actually I just tried to compile the Collection calees and got an
ambiguity
java/util/AbstractSet.java:57: Can't find method
`containsAll(Ljava/util/Collection;)' in type `java.util.AbstractSet'.
Candidates are:
  `containsAll(java.util.Collection)' in `java.util.Set'
  `containsAll(java.util.Collection)' in `java.util.AbstractCollection'.
         return containsAll((Collection) o);

But it seems that can be fixed by casting at line 57:
((AbstractCollection)this)
Also the import statements
import java.io.OutputStream.GetField ;   // and PutField
don't work for me.
But this can be fixed by avoiding the explicit variable declarations

Next I get :

I have an "old" compiler, from 20001002. I have tried upgrading, but
can't because it won't compile.

Any help ?
