Hi,

I found a bug in the generics support of kjc. The attached program 
produces an error:
---
artemis:~/java/genericstest>kjavac -generic FakeList.java
FakeList.java:39: error:Too less type arguments for type "FakeList"; 
required: 1 [JSR 41]
artemis:~/java/genericstest>kjavac -version
Version 2.1A released 11. February 2002
---
With the compiler if the Sun JDK 1.5.0, there is no error message.

Matthias
