Here's a simple testcase: ------------------- File: foo/Bar.java -------------------- package foo; public class Bar { static void snafu( ) { } } ---------------------------- 8< ---------------------------- ------------------- File: ChkAcc.java ---------------------- public class ChkAcc { public void checkAccess( ) { foo.Bar.snafu( ); } } ---------------------------- 8< ---------------------------- GCJ wrongly allows ChkAcc.java to compile successfully. Note that this works with non-static methods as well. It also works if a class in a named package accesses package-private methods in the anonymous "default" package.
