The bug is easy to track down, given the following trace.
It comes from a bad test in Container.java:300  ->

	    if (index == -1 || index == ncomponents) {

must become:

	    if (index == -1 || index >= ncomponents) {


$ cat group.java
import java.awt.*;

public class group {

    public static void main(String [] args) {
        Container cont = new Container () { };
        Component comp = new Component () { };

        cont.add(comp);
        cont.add(comp,1);
    }
}
$ javac group.java
$ java group
java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException
