It's called from

com.sun.tools.javac.code.TypeAnnotations.organizeTypeAnnotationsSignatures(Symtab,
Names, Log, JCClassDecl)

and

com.sun.tools.javac.code.TypeAnnotations.organizeTypeAnnotationsBodies(Symtab,
Names, Log, JCClassDecl)

The first one is called from

com.sun.tools.javac.comp.MemberEnter.complete(Symbol)

and put on a queue in Annotate.

Is this the location you mean with "at the end of MemberEnter"?

cu, WMD.
