Description

Many build failures on jdk 1.7.0_02 are due to the fact that this version of the JDK doesn't return declared methods in a predictable order, while other JDKs do. This leads to random build failures, as the Class#getDeclaredMethods method may return the methods in the expected order, but not always.
