[Bug libgcj/20273] New: LinkedHashMap breaks linked list when access() is called

["soleger at nc dot rr dot com" <gcc-bugzilla@gcc.gnu.org>]

File: gcc/libjava/java/util/LinkedHashMap.java
CVS Version: 1.6

When using "accessOrder"-based sorting in LinkedHashMap, the linked list appears
to become broken after calling get(). I believe that this is due to a missing
line in the access() function. I believe that the following line needs to be
added after line 188:

root.pred = this;

This will relink "root.pred" to the "this" object which has been moved to the
"tail" of the linked list. Otherwise, root.pred will point to the
2nd-from-the-tail element which breaks the semantics of the linked list used in
the class. I will post some test code that exposes this problem shortly.
