 I looked at PR gcj/129 a little bit today.
 The crash occurs in expand_expr when trying to expand the VAR_DECL for
 the array in the other class.
 
 I think this happens when we fail to call make_decl_rtl on a static
 field.  I believe this usually happens when build_field_ref is called
 from maybe_generate_pre_expand_clinit.
 
 However, in this case, we don't call that function for
 support.PR129_A.  I'm not sure why, but I assume it has something to
 do with the fact that we aren't compiling that class -- just reading
 it.
