And for the "what would Java do" side of things, here's the equivalent Java:

package com.jprl.mines;

import android.app.*;
import android.content.*;
import android.os.*;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.*;

public class MinesActivity extends ListActivity {
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        String[] items = new String[]{
                "Item One",
                "Second Item",
        };
        ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String> (
                this, 
                android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1,
                items);
        setListAdapter(adapter);
        getListView().setOnItemClickListener(new
AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
            public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int
position, long id) {
                Intent intent = new Intent ();
                intent.setClassName(getBaseContext(),
"monoDroidTesting.SubActivity");
                startActivity (intent);
            }
        });        
    }
}

The result: 

E/AndroidRuntime(  432): android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: Unable to
find explicit activity class {com.jprl.mines/monoDroidTesting.SubActivity};
have you declared this activity in your AndroidManifest.xml?

i.e. Java also fails, but for a DIFFERENT reason: the class
"monoDroidTesting.SubActivity" doesn't exist.  (Which makes sense, we can't
very well ask Android to launch a type that doesn't exist...)

Note that we do NOT get an error about FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK.
