gcj (2.97 20001106)
>Description:
Consider this piece of code:

$ cat Demo.java
public class Demo {
    Object a, b[], c[];
    public void foo() {
        c = new Object[10];
    }
}
$ gcj -C Demo.java
Demo.java: In class `Demo':
Demo.java: In method `foo()':
Demo.java:5: Incompatible type for `='. Explicit cast needed to convert `java.lang.Object[]' to `java.lang.Object[][]'.
                c = new Object[10];
                     ^
1 error
$

With 
    Object a, b[];
    Object c[];
there are no compilation errors.
