Description

Currently, java.lang.reflect.Proxy.getProxyClass accepts an array of Class<?> as its second argument: interfaces. According to the Java SE 6 API, however, interfaces should be a varargs parameter. This might not matter in a lot of cases, but it confuses the Scala compiler (scalac) big-time, making it impossible to compile the Scala library against the Apache Harmony classlib (note the array of arrays scalac mistakenly requires):

found : Array[java.lang.Class[_]]
required: Array[_ <: Array[java.lang.Class[_]]]
java.lang.reflect.Proxy.getProxyClass(cl, ifaces: _*)
