Compiler crash when building with JDK 1.6.0_35

Looks similar to an issue in Guava: http://code.google.com/p/guava-libraries/issues/detail?id=950

Thank you for the bug report and your interest in Batoo JPA.

However the current build system is based on Java 7 as mention in README.

Would you please try with Java 7 and report back?

[ochedru]

Oops, I should have read the readme. It builds fine indeed with JDK 7u7.

[hceylan]

Good! I am closing the issue now.
