I figured out why this started happening.  It's because Paul just committed his implementation of the nullability language changes, and the JavaGen work (Bug 355742) hasn't been done yet.  Even though this defect is close to a dupe of 355742, I'll keep it open so we're sure this case is working.
Comment 2 Matt Heitz CLA 2011-09-01 11:11:03 EDT 
Bug 355742 has been moved to Iteration 14, so I'm moving this bug too.
Comment 3 Jeff Douglas CLA 2011-09-14 12:39:33 EDT 
Since the nullability changes have taken place, this defect is no longer a problem because you cannot define any or number without a ? indicator.
Comment 4 broy2 CLA 2011-09-20 11:27:40 EDT 
OK
