Under openSuse, the following program says that 


        int indx8 = java.lang.Float.MAX_EXPONENT ;
                    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1 problem (1 error)


after javac t.java where t.java contains

package de.viper_ag.util ;

// import java.lang.Float ;

public class t {

        private void init()
        {
                // int indx8 = Float.MAX_EXPONENT ;
                // int indx8 = MAX_EXPONENT ;
                int indx8 = java.lang.Float.MAX_EXPONENT ;
                // indx8 = java.lang.Math.getExponent(java.lang.Float.MAX_VALUE) ;
        }
}

 java -version
java version "1.6.0_24"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.11.3) (suse-9.1-x86_64)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.0-b12, mixed mode)

This type of error does not occur with Fedora-9 or Fedora-14 distributions.
Any workaround for this?
