Description
The tests on java.util.EnumMap use the following code pattern:
---------------------------------------------------------
    Object [] array = {
        Suit.CLUBS, null,
        Suit.DIAMONDS, "val1",
        Suit.HEARTS, "val2",
        Suit.SPADES, new Integer(1)
    };
    ...
    EnumMap map = new EnumMap(Suit.class);
    ...
    for (int j = 0; j < i; j += 2) {
        map.put(array[j], array[j + 1]); // *
    }
---------------------------------------------------------

The line marked (*) cause compilation error since JDK7 b55 with the output:
---------------------------------------------------------
minitest.java:15: cannot find symbol
        map.put(array[0], array[1]);
           ^
  symbol:   method put(java.lang.Object,java.lang.Object)
