[Checkers] Interned checker throws ClassCastException

[Mahmood Ali]

Hi guys,

I was just able to compile free pastry and daikon using the Interned  
and IGJ framework.

I am afraid that it took a long time to compile though. It took about  
13 minutes to compile Daikon and 3 minutes to compile pastry with  
Interned. IGJ takes much longer.

I write another email tomorrow morning on the status and the issues I  
have found and tried to resolve.

In the future, I will try to make any check-in to the SVN atomic  
without it breaking tests (IGJ tests were failing most of today, but  
not now).
