I thought I clearly indicated in my initial report that having a prior
(or current) version of the jar file installed probably made the
warning go away. That's an explanation why the problem only occurs
for some people and not other, its not the solution.
I agree with HJ, this needs to be fixed. It's a perception of quality
issue, people will erroneously think gcj is broken when it's in fact a
bug in the testsuite and they'll file spurious bug reports which waste
our time.
