I am witnessing the same problems when running the demo.

For the now, the workaround is to use:
r3042 for checkers
r89   for langtools

Basically before my last check-ins to the compiler and  
CheckerFramework regarding reading from byte-code.


I believe that the used daikon.jar was compiler with the buggy  
compiler that did the following things:
- it wasn't outputing some of the target_info fields to the classfile
- some of the ones written to the classfile is simply -1 values.

When reading with the new compiler, the ClassReader would read the  
extra expected fields, hence missing the Stream position for the rest  
of the attributes.  I suspect that the problem would go away once we  
compile Daikon with the new compiler cleanly.
