FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.6.0-rc"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0-rc-b91)

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
The capture conversion of a ?-extends wildcard that, via the class declaration and another parameter, has a ?-super wildcard as upper bound, is calculated wrong.
This allows code with a type error to pass the compilers type checking.
Example code attached.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Compile (and run) the example

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
Error from the compiler
ACTUAL -
Compiles (and throws a ClassCastException)

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
// this code compiles without warnings, has no casts,
// but throws a ClassCastException
public class CaptureBug6b {
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		P<? super B, ? extends A> p = new P<A,A>(new A());
		B b = p.get();
	}
}

class P<U, T extends U> {
	P(T v) {t = v;}
	T t;
	T get() {return t;}
}

class A {}
class B extends A {}
