Do you use that abstract base class as a RPC parameter? If so, *of
course*GWT has to look for and try to compile all sub classes and
implementations
*since* they might get used in a RPC and hence need to be serializable and
compilable.

To avoid this you can either:
- refactor your RPC to use only the concrete types

*or* if you rely on using abstract classes or interfaces in RPC:
- you might want to configure your sub classes' packages to be part of a
module's client packages, so that the GWT compiler finds them (your "No
source found..." error indicates that this is not the case).

I personnaly think your problem is not the behaviour of the GWT compiler but
your project setup regarding separation into modules. Hope this can help
you.
