With earlier versions of jikes, I would get verify errors like this
whenever there was a private or protected constructor (rather than
public) on an internal class. PushbackReader has that on the
PushbackBuffer class, so that might be worth checking out.

With jikes 1.14 this seems to have been fixed, but jikes 1.15 is
completely broken as far as I know and produces verify errors all over
the place.

When jikes produced these errors for me, the problems did not kaffe seem
specific.
