I attempted to upgrade from M3 to M4 and a project that compiled in M3 gets an 
internal compiler error in M4. To upgrade, I deleted everying but the 
workspace directory, and unzipped the M4 package, restarted eclipse and did 
a "rebuild all". I get the following exception :

If I go back to M3, I can rebuild fine.
