This seems to be a common problem. Eclipse had the same kind of issue
(already fixed), see https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=11129

We have added it to the page that lists problematic code snippets we
found in common free Java applications that make them dependent upon the
some specific (proprietary) implementation and that shows how to
implement things in a way that standards are respected and compatibility
with GNU Classpath is the result:
