Very simple strange bug

[Martin Kahlert]

Hi!
I simplified my bugreport (gnats: java/2008) even more:

cat buggy.java

public class buggy
{
 public static void main(String[] args)
    {
     String s[] = new String[1];

     s[0]  =  "";
     s[0] +=  "";
    }
}

gcj -c buggy.java
buggy.java: In class `buggy':
buggy.java: In method `buggy.main(java.lang.String[])':
buggy.java:8: Tree check: expected class 'e', have 'd' (function_decl)
buggy.java:8: confused by earlier errors, bailing out

It is neccessary, that s is an array of strings. A simple String works.

If you change 
s[0] +=  "";
into
s[0] =  s[0] + "";
it works, too.

Strange....

gcj -v:
