Its likely not only IBM JDKs.
HP-UX has been know to have compiling issues as well.

Well we can always blame sun for creating the crappy confusing generics.
I guess the compiler engineers dont even get generics right as well.

The work around I have seen was to add a type cast to the super type
ProcessorDefinition def = (ProcessorDefinition) processorType

And then do that instacenof check afterwards. So something like


ProcessorDefinition def = (ProcessorDefinition) processorType;
 if (def instanceof LoadBalanceDefinition) {
