I did what they say, but it's now much more confusing:

package de.prilmeier.mysabom.aspects.authorization;

import de.prilmeier.mysabom.addressbook.AddressBookDO;
import de.prilmeier.mysabom.addressbook.AddressBookManagerRemote;
import de.prilmeier.mysabom.party.PartyDO;

public abstract class AddressBookAuthorizationAspect
{
   public pointcut remoteAuthOperations ( AddressBookManagerRemote iro, 
AddressBookDO ado ) :
       target ( AddressBookManagerRemote ) && target ( iro ) && args ( 
ado, * ) &&
       (
           call ( public void AddressBookManagerRemote.addParty ( 
AddressBookDO, PartyDO ) ) ||
           call ( public void AddressBookManagerRemote.removeParty ( 
AddressBookDO, PartyDO ) )
       );

   declare warning: remoteAuthOperations ( AddressBookManagerRemote, 
AddressBookDO ) : "remoteAuthOperations matches";
}

Now I have a compiler error:

$ ant compile
Buildfile: build.xml

compile:
    [iajc] 
F:\Inetpub\cvsroot\da-aop\source\mysabom\src\de\prilmeier\mysabom\aspects\authorization\AddressBookAuthorizationAspect.aj:14 
[error] Syntax error on token ";", invalid PseudoToken
    [iajc] );
    [iajc]
    [iajc] MessageHolder:  (1 error)
    [iajc] [error   0]: error at );
    [iajc]
    [iajc] 
F:\Inetpub\cvsroot\da-aop\source\mysabom\src\de\prilmeier\mysabom\aspects\authorization\AddressBookAuthorizationAspect.aj:14:0 
Syntax error on token ";", invalid PseudoToken

BUILD FAILED
F:\Inetpub\cvsroot\da-aop\source\mysabom\build.xml:133: 1 errors

What's going on here? Is it not allowed to use "declare warning" in an 
abstract aspect? If I move the "declare warning" statement to an 
extending aspect, the compiler error vanishes (But there is no output 
"remoteAuthOperations matches").
