+/** <P> Java serialization (in java.io) expects to be able to
+ instantiate a class and invoke a no-arg constructor of that
+ class's first non-Serializable superclass. This is not a valid
+ operation according to the VM specification; one can not (for
+ classes A and B, where B is a subclass of A) write "new B;
+ invokespecial A()" without getting a verification error. </P>
+
+ <P> In all other respects, the bytecode-based reflection framework
+ can be reused for this purpose. This marker class was originally
+ known to the VM and verification disabled for it and all
+ subclasses, but the bug fix for 4486457 necessitated disabling
+ verification for all of the dynamically-generated bytecodes
+ associated with reflection. This class has been left in place to
+ make future debugging easier. </P> */
