["thebohemian at gmx dot net" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

public class Explain4
{

        static Stuff1[] foo1;
        static Stuff1[][] foo2;
        static Stuff1[][][] foo3;

        Stuff1[] foo4;
        Stuff1[][] foo5;
        Stuff1[][][] foo6;


        public static void main(String[] args)
        {
                System.out.println(foo1);
                System.out.println(foo2);
                System.out.println(foo3);

                Explain4 e = new Explain4();
                System.out.println(e.foo4);
                System.out.println(e.foo5);
                System.out.println(e.foo6);
        }

}

class Stuff1 extends Thread {}

If you compile this, remove the Stuff1.class file and run it the JDK will print
null 6 times.

GIJ however tries to resolve the Stuff1 class, fails and throws a
ClassNotFoundException.
