Use od -x to look at the class file to see which class version it is. 
Class files >= version 51 are verified (exclusively) by the type 
checking verifier whereas with version 50 then if the verification fails 
it falls back to the old type inferencing verifier. If you have 
something modifying the class files then maybe it isn't updating the 
stack map tables and that would explain the error. For your jdk6 test 
runs then try running with -XX:-FailOverToOldVerifier and see if fails too.
