This is a known bug in OpenJDK regarding generic type inference.  A
workaround is to introduce a temporary variable, or to use Sun's JDK
instead.

A Sun guy was working on a fix, but it didn't turn out to fix the problem
and it isn't clear they are going to be able to fix it anytime soon
(apparently javac and all the older compilers were subtly breaking JLS
regarding recursive type parameters), so we will probably have to just put
the workaround in our code.
