This is a well known gcj bug.  The code in StringTokenizer is actually
fine, it is the compiler that has the problem.  I believe this bug is
fixed in cvs.

We try to make it easy.  For simple patches, just send the patch, a
ChangeLog entry, and an explanation to <java-patches@gcc.gnu.org>.

If you submit several small patches, or one large one, you'll have to
go through the whole paperwork thing.
