Am I missing something here?

The link you provided is talking about a sort function. The OP relates to the
rangeCheck() function (which is 9 statements in length - I checked). Am I
missing something here?

Interesting link. A few mails later, the contributor Martin Buchholz says he
addded Classpath exception wording to TIMsort based on the disputed Arrays.java
code, and that this had been suggested by a @sun.com person.

So sun.com
instigated the infringement
:-)
