Okay, so I understood your blog entry right.

But why would that help? The same AspectJ version is compiling the code just
fine in  Eclipse, while it fails to compile the code from Ant. Could this be
a classpath issue? Anyway, I will try to see if I can get my hands on
Eclipse 3.3.

The failing class doesn't have inner types (neither at the class nor at the
method level), it doesn't inherit from other classes, only implements two
interfaces. At least I'm now also able to trigger the failure by simply
running ajc against the source file in question.
