Unfortunately, it morphed into another issue:

The Constructor is missing in the MethodType enum of this version:

There's no such service available ATM, and it would be questionable as 
long as build service vm instances hang as often as they do now (about 
one of 50 builds). Nevertheless, it's a fantastic service.

I have no problem to mail these issues manually, as I regard this as my 
own humble contribution to this fine project (and I regret to not have 
enough time to supply a fix, while at it..).
