Version: AspectJ Compiler 1.1beta4

The ajc compiler issues a spurious error message and exits with a negative 
error code when weaving code containing static declaration of a nested class. 
The compiler seem to write the classfiles correctly but the negative exit 
status causes problems when e.g. using the AjcCompilerAdapter in ant.

To reproduce:
1) Extract the following two files into an empty directory:
// File: A.aj:
aspect A  {

    pointcut withinTest(): within(Test);
    pointcut callToHandleOrder() : (withinTest() &&
                             call(* handleOrder(..)));

    Object around(): callToHandleOrder() {

      return "DUMMY inserted by ASPECT" ;
   }
}
// End of File A.aj

// File : Test.java
public class Test
{
    // Commenting out the static declaration makes everything work OK
    static
    {
        class StaticNestedClass
        {
        }
    }
    
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
      System.out.println(new Test().handleOrder("test"));
    }

    private String handleOrder(String t)
    {
      return t;
    }

}
// End of Test.java

2) Compile the files 
   ajc -sourceroots . -verbose
