See the discussions on the Java mailinglist about the use of
dollar signs. "Java uses dollar sign ($) as the namespace separator for
nested (inner) classes." Sun seems to have created this precedent.
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/java/2002-02/msg00111.html
The question that repeatedly arises is how to mangle this in
various places that do not allow $, while retaining it where it needs to
be visible to Java, e.g., class serialization.
