I've looked at the stack trace, but unfortunately, neither AbstractList nor
AbstractListIterator have changed since the 1.0.7 release, so that rules the
two suspects out.

Looking at
http://www.kaffe.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/kaffe/libraries/javalib/java/util/ ,
collection classes that have changed since 1.0.7 are: Vector, HashMap,
Collections, ArrayList. You could try to replace the respective files in 1.0.7
with the updated versions and see if that helps.

In the long run (and hopefully before 1.1.0 comes out in June) I hope to merge
in the collection classes from GNU Classpath.

cheers,
