class A {
   public void foo() {
   }
}

Use IMethodBinding.overrides to test the method binding of 'foo' against the
initializer (<init>) of java.lang.Object
-> true is returned

Same problem for the private static method Object.registerNatives
Comment 1 Martin Aeschlimann CLA 2004-12-14 06:57:11 EST 
same for 'public final native void notify();'

As a general note for the 'overrides' feature: It's ok and even wanted that also
final or non visible methods are returned, and there's another method that
allows us to validate on that. It should just be a test if two methods have the
same signature.

Maybe a better name is what we need, see Markus' bug report
