Revision 237 compile errors

[Paul van der Laan]

(New user here, no previous experience with Java.)

I followed the instructions how to download and compile sfntly, but unfortunately the latest revision (237) did not compile on my machines, please see error report below.

For the record – I've tried this under OSX 10.6.8, as well as under 10.8.5. Both machines produced the same error report.

However, revision 236 compiled without any problems. So for the moment I will be sticking to that, but I’m interested to know how to solve this issue.
