My typo's are starting to get to me...I have to correct them.
"and then run separate checks...."

"an enhancement request?"
I meant, I can enter an enhancement request for the test to enforce 
order of output. Also, I do not see that this test can check inner and 
anonymous classes....maybe another enhancement request.
I depends on how much of this type of javap testing we would like to see.
