Currently I don't have my IDE so I am not 100% sure but I believe it is
this one:
In gwt-user-2.7.0.jar
com/google/gwt/emul/java/util/Collections.java
You have to copy it in ~/myproject/src/java/util/Collections.java in
package java.util
and make your modifications there.
The obvious disadvantage of this neat trick that you will have to port
forward in every GWT upgrade your local modifications - or you can submit a
patch :-)
