I am on the same wavelength with you as far as unexplained phenomena
like this. I was too lazy to look into this and rationalized this
by the fact that it's probably good practice to group same-named
packages together (MetalLookAndFeel, in javax.swing.plaf.metal,
is smack in the middle of a bunch of javax.swing.plaf classes.)

This might be an MSYS thing because the problem didn't occur with
my Linux builds. If you want me to investigate this further, I will.
