I think you have a stale version of Character, as this is 
not a problem in CVS.

Recent changes to java/lang/Character.java, et al
have broken java/lang/String.java.

Found 2 semantic errors compiling "../java/lang/String.java":

  1628.     return Character.direction[Character.readChar(ch) >> 7] & 3;
                   <----------------->
*** Error: No field named "direction" was found in type "java/lang/Character". 
However, there is 
an accessible field "DIRECTIONALITY_UNDEFINED" whose name closely matches the 
name "direction".


  1628.     return Character.direction[Character.readChar(ch) >> 7] & 3;
                                       <-------------------->
*** Error: Method "char readChar(char ch);" in class "java/lang/Character" has 
private access. 
Therefore, it is not accessible in class "java/lang/String".
