The difference with JET and _our_ interpreter (I have no idea how interpreter 
on sun works) is that _our_ interpreter performs resolution only at the time 
it necessary, e.g. a reference to another class' method. JET would perform a 
resolution at the moment of the method compilation which is the cause of the 
whole discussion. Correct me if I am wrong.
