      Description

      This code:
          System.out.println(java.util.Map.class.getMethod("entrySet").getGenericReturnType());
      produces this output:
          java.util.Set<java.util.Map.java.util.Map$Entry<K, V>>
      rather than the expected:
          java.util.Set<java.util.Map$Entry<K, V>>

      This is with Tiger and with Mustang b68.
