>Description:
(The example below probably states this more clearly.)

If a class:
- inheirits methods from its superclass, and
- implements an interface which its superclass does not implement, and
- the inheirited methods ought to be part of the interface because their names and signatures match those declared in the interface, 

the inheirited methods are nevertheless not matched up to the interface.  
>How-To-Repeat:
Copy the following three files into a directory and 
attempt to compile with "gcj -c A.java":

// A.java
public class A extends B implements I
{
  public static void main(String args[])
  {
    A x = new A();
    x.m();
  }
}

// B.java
public class B
{
  public void m()
  {
  }
}

// I.java
public interface I
{
  public void m();
}

You will get the following error message:

A.java: In class `A':
A.java: In method `main(java.lang.String[])':
A.java:6: Can't find method `m()' in type `A'. Candidates are:
  `m()' in `I'
  `m()' in `B'.
    x.m();

Compiling the associated .class files works fine.
