This error message is pretty mangled, but I suspect you might have another
version of the driver somewhere on the classpath. The driver will fail
to compile in this situation as it gets confused with the
different versions of the same class.

on class Jdbc3PoolingDataSource lines 29 & 31 changed
Jdbc3PoolingDataSource for PoolingDataSource.

On class Jdbc3ObjectFactory line 46 added a cast to
Jdbc3PoolingDataSource.

Taking a closer look the driver has some rather odd code there, but I get
no failure here. Is there any change you aren't really using sun's jdk to
compile this and one of the free compilers out there?
