RE: [abc-dev] Compilation order should matter?

Hmmm, actually I am not so sure this is a bug. At least ajc should give
you the same behavior up till now:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=52105

What *does* look wrong to me is "-sourceroots s40", because I believe
that this should rather be pointing to the package *root*, i.e. the
directory containing the "s40" folder. But this should not change
anything, I guess.
