Right now the following test case fails with a syntax error:
public @interface X<T> {
	
	Zork foo();
}
----------
1. ERROR in X.java (at line 1)
        public @interface X<T> {
                          ^
Syntax error on token "X", { expected after this token
----------
2. ERROR in X.java (at line 1)
        public @interface X<T> {
                               ^
Syntax error, insert "}" to complete Block
----------
3. ERROR in X.java (at line 1)
        public @interface X<T> {

        Zork foo();
                               ^^^^^^
The interface X cannot define an initializer
----------
4. ERROR in X.java (at line 3)
        Zork foo();
        ^^^^
Zork cannot be resolved to a type
----------
4 problems (4 errors)

we could change it to also report the error on Zork.
----------
1. ERROR in D:\tests_sources\X.java (at line 1)
	public @interface X<T> {
	                    ^
Syntax error, annotation declaration cannot have type parameters
----------
2. ERROR in D:\tests_sources\X.java (at line 3)
	Zork foo();
	^^^^
Zork cannot be resolved to a type
----------
2 problems (2 errors)

This is much more understandable for the user.
