Try compiling the attatched code with Kopi or Jikes (which I have on my box)
and try disassembling it ... (with jdasm of course). See the istore_0 and
lstore_0 in the same function ?

Language specs should be followed , not ignored or taken for granted ....
otherwise you'll find yourself tearing your hair when that app you wrote 
doesn't port well..... and it's fun debugging bytecode.

That is *after* the bytecode has been correctly parsed ... I guess 
this discussion isn't doing mono any good ...... nor is mono going 
anywhere near Java (Miguel himself said that he started Mono because
he didn't like Java's "Give and Take" combo)....
