FYI: Update test to follow 1.6 specification behaviour.

A bit of explantion:

The test expects an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException where a 
RuntimeException should be thrown.  This is a bug in JDK up to 1.5: 
while assembling the RuntimeException, the 
ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException is raised.  This is fixed in JDK 1.6.

See also http://bugs.sun.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=4511992 and
