Compiler should warn if weaving into system classes will fail

Description

In #63 (bullet 3) the compiler generated code that required decapsulation for a method from Object. Other situations exist, where the OTRE will fail because classes have been loaded before the OTRE.

It would be nice if the compiler would detect these cases and issue a warning/error. Is the set of unweavable classes explicitly known?

r19001 brings these improvements:

Better error reporting for binding/weaving to system classes:

  • issue a compiler warning mentioning JPLIS
  • make runtime error message more explicit.

Currently system classes are detected by a package starting with "java." or "javax.". Other than adding more prefixes to this list this is probably all we can do at this point.
