Reverse engineering of this nature is not allowed. Serialization of
classes is to be written according to the javadocs. If the javadocs
are incomplete, file a bug report with Sun.
We had this discussion a long time ago. If we do find a case where we
need to reverse engineer a serialized object, someone who has never
downloaded the JDK needs to do that.
This is per the advise of the FSF.
