It also compiles fine if I just remove it. I've fixed it in SVN1303.

Funnily I just copied and modified the line from above in 
RelationListDialog.java:64

@Override public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) {

which looks quite similiar and seem to work with your JDK.

Life is not fair sometimes ;-)

Windows

Although source and target settings for javac in the ant script are set 
to 1.5, javac seems to simply ignore them (at least jdk1.6.0_11 on 
Windows) :-(


As this problem don't seem to happen very often, please let us know if 
that happens again, as I just can't check it here ...
