Yes.  If you have a method like this:

    public void foo () throws VirtualMachineError, NullPointerException
    { ... }

then the throws info is not needed.  You could also write:

    public void foo ()
    { ... }

The difference between these functions is merely cosmetic.

Yeah.  I wasn't including javax.*.  Also we don't have CORBA in the
tree, but there is a CORBA implementation out that you can use.
