TestCase.fail() bug

[Chris Moller <cmoller at redhat dot com>]

Hello, Fryskers, wherever you are!

Per the attached exchange between Andrew and me, does anyone have any
idea how to fix this kind of bug?  I'm not a Java guy and haven't a
clue, and the suggestions I got from Phil on IRC regarding similar uses
of TestCase.fail() in frysk weren't similar enough to the uses in
AttachedSelf.java that I could apply them.

Any advice/suggestions/sympathy would be greatly appreciated,
Chris

Chris,

It's the new more pedantic ECJ; Mark's mentioned this on irc and 
frysk@.  I'd send it to frysk@ asking for suggestions :-)
