It appears the Apache mailing list stripped my attachment. Here's the comment from Andrey@JetBrains:
Please see the response from developer: The problem seems to be caused by bug in java compiler from JDK 1.6, it is known to sometimes produce compilation errors for complicated code involving generic types. Java compiler from JDK 1.7 compiles your code successfully so I would recommend you to consider upgrading to JDK 1.7. If it isn't possible you can switch to Eclipse Compiler (Settings | Compiler | Java Compiler | "Use Compiler" combobox). JetBrains, Inc http://www.jetbrains.com "Develop with pleasure!"
