 The bytecode is the output of Sun/Blackdown javac 1.3.1 on the given A.java
 The error was first found with my own compiler (http://nice.sf.net) that 
 generates java bytecode and now optionally calls gcj on the ouput.

 I suppose this is only an optim due to the fact that the finally block 
 is empty. I tried to find the smallest case that triggers the problem.
 
 I have gcj 3.0.3 and it works fine on the source. I haven't tried to 
 make it produce bytecode.

 Right.
