 I'm using a relatively recent gcj.  I don't have any of my local
 patches in the current build.
 
 I tried your test program:
 
 creche. gcj --syntax-only T1410d1.java 
 T1410d1.java: In class `T1410d1':
 T1410d1.java: In method `foo(int)':
 T1410d1.java:6: Duplicate case label: `0'.
                case 0:
                ^
 1 error
 
 
 If I run gcj as `gcj -C' then it erroneously passes.
 
 
 
 Mo> One can even get the compiler to core
 Mo> dump by adding another a case label:
 
 Without -C this works, but with -C I get the segv.
 
 In both cases using `-c' instead of `-C' does the right thing.
 
 So it appears to be a bug in the bytecode generator and not in the
 front end.
 
 Thanks,
