Okay, Jode's not able to handle 1.4.

ClassInfo.java throws a ClassFormatException while reading
java/lang/AbstractMethodError.  On line 290/291 of ClassInfo.java it
does some version comparisons and fails.  According to JSwat, version
is 3145728.  Guessing the if statement needs to be modified to handle
newer class formats.
