JSR 202 dubbed Java Class File Specification Update was delivered as part of 
Java 6 (it was supposed to be delivered for Java 5 but it was postponed).

I guess what might be interesting for soot users and developers is:

"Adding split verifier support.

The split verifier architecture that was introduced in CDLC via JSR-030 and 
JSR-139 offers significant improvements over the classic JVM verifier, including 
reducing verification time. It appears useful to allow this verification format 
to be used with J2SE."
