Running Build 200410260800 & Java 1.5 : 

This code below compiles without problem using javac, but Eclipse reports error
as seen in comment. The other two versions are fine.

==============
interface C<A> { }
interface PC<X> extends C<X> { } 

interface PO<Y>  {  
  C<Y> proc1();
  C<? super Y> proc2();
  C<? extends Y> proc3();
}

abstract class SPO<Z> implements PO<Z> {
  public C<Z> proc1() { return result1; }
  private final PC<Z> result1 = null;
  
  public C<? super Z> proc2() { return result2; }
  // The above line is reported as error in Eclipse:
  // result2 is underlined and the message says
  // Type mismatch: cannot convert from PC<? super Z> to C<? super Z>
  private final PC<? super Z> result2 = null;
  
  public C<? extends Z> proc3() { return result3; }
  private final PC<? extends Z> result3 = null;
}
