Sorry I couldn't identify the exact problem. It certainly is an odd
error. The only other time I've seen it fail to find java.lang.Object
was in this thread:

http://groups.google.com/group/Google-Web-Toolkit-Contributors/browse_thread/thread/7b2b7db63bbccdd6/fd3e1e17082d2f66?#fd3e1e17082d2f66

... where I solved the problem by dumping my classpath and starting
from scratch, basically.
 I never did find exactly what was causing the problem, but hopefully
starting from scratch will work for you, too.
