Description of problem:
Compiling:
class BugToken {
   public void oops () {
       final char eofSym;
       switch (7) {
          case eofSym    : ;
       }
   }

}

yields:
javac BugToken.java
BugToken.java: In class `BugToken':
BugToken.java: In method `BugToken.oops()':
BugToken.java:4: internal error: Segmentation fault
Please submit a full bug report,
with preprocessed source if appropriate.

Removing 'final' yields:

BugToken.java: In method `BugToken.oops()':
BugToken.java:5: Constant expression required.
             case eofSym    : ;
             ^

as hoped.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gcc-3.2.2-5

How reproducible:

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Using javac script supplied with Redhat 9 compile the program:class

   public void oops () {
       assinal char eofSym;
       switch (7) {
          case eofSym    : ;
       }
   }

}
   

Actual Results:  javac BugToken.java
BugToken.java: In class `BugToken':
BugToken.java: In method `BugToken.oops()':
BugToken.java:4: internal error: Segmentation fault
