i wasn't able to wait (even though i am writing a test today), so i found
the following. Here is some code that exhibits the behavior.

[code]
package test;

void main(String[] args) { }

public class A
{
  private B b = new B();
}

public class B { }
[/code]

Note that the following code compiles the second time without any problems
(just swapped A and B!!!):

[code]
package test;

void main(String[] args) { }

public class B { }

public class A
{
	private B b = new B();
}
[/code]


i compile it with ant. The ant target worked fine with the compiler 0.9.5,
and is the
following (i omitted some ant properties and tasks):

...

<path id="nicec.class.path">
  <pathelement path="${nice.jar}"/>
</path>

<taskdef name="nicec" classname="nice.tools.ant.Nicec">
  <classpath refid="nicec.class.path"/>
</taskdef>

<path id="compile.class.path">
  <pathelement path="${logging.lib}"/>
  <pathelement path="${niceswing.lib}"/>
</path>

...

<target name="compile" depends="prepare">
  <nicec
      package="${main.pkg}"
      sourcepath="${src.dir}"
      destination="${class.dir}"
      jar="${class.dir}\${dist.jar}">
    <classpath refid="compile.class.path"/>
  </nicec>
</target>

As allready mentioned, the first compilation works fine. The second
compilation with allready existing package.nicei and *.class files is
failing with the following error:

compile:
    [nicec] nice.lang: parsing
    [nicec] test: parsing
    [nicec]
    [nicec] H:\nFasTriX\class\test\package.nicei: line 1, column 7:
    [nicec] Class test.B has no constructor

BUILD FAILED

Hope this helps you finding the bug,
Andreas
