By making the following patch to _Jv_CheckCast I can now see what is being
cast to what:

2001-03-18  Mark Wielaard  <mark@klomp.org>

        * java/lang/natClass.cc (_Jv_CheckCast): add class names to exception

OK to commit?

I now get the following StackTrace:

[... etc ...]

And a ClassConstant really cannot be cast to a NameAndTypeConstant.
But I don't know how the code reached this point.

Cheers,
