Crashing Javac.

Lesson taken (thank you Miles Sabin)

Avoid using Abstract Types or scala Type aliases in Java, and you'll live long :)

Dear all,
I have somehow managed to make JavaC crash...I think it depends on my type hierarchy, but I have no idea on how to investigate that.

Any suggestion is warmly welcome

An exception has occurred in the compiler (1.6.0_30). Please file a bug at the Java Developer Connection (http://java.sun.com/webapps/bugreport)  after checking the Bug Parade for duplicates. Include your program and the following diagnostic in your report.  Thank you.
