 Why does this matter?  The class in question isn't accessible outside
 java.lang.

 I guess it doesn't really matter.  I may have missed the non-public-ness
 of the class.  I don't remember Sun's rules for not extending java.*,
 but non-public classes may be ok.
 
 Still, I do think as a matter of style it would be cleaner to have
 an implementation-specific class in gnu.gcj.* rather than java.lang.

 I agree.  Moving it just has a lower priority without the presence of
 an actual bug.  I intend to move it eventually, and new classes of
 this sort will be put into the gnu.gcj hierarchy.
