The problem file is in cc-langs.el, the one that is supplied with 20.4 - I
haven't done anything other than unpack the distribution. Here is the line in
question:
(defconst c-Java-inexpr-class-key "\\<new\\>")
It is also referenced in cc-mode.el
c-inexpr-class-key c-Java-inexpr-class-key
Is anyone else having this problem...

Yes, that was it...I had my Emacs maximized, so I guess it reads off of the
parent's display dimensions to size and position itself, which is what confuses
it...sounds like a bug to me!

Thanks, Paul, for the accurate and timely help...I hope I can get some
resolution to the cc-*.el stuff, because I can't use 20.4 unless I can use JDE
- don't do anything other than Java programming, so that's my bread and
butter....
