Also this was compiled with a 1.4 version of the JDK so maybe compiling with a 1.5 version is causing the problem.
Patrick can you try compiling with 1.4 version and running it with 5.0 and let's see if that solves the issue. If it does compile with 5.0 with 1.4 compat flag as you mentioned yesterday and see what happens. If it does not solve it then am not sure exactly what we can do about it.
