This one: (wrapped for readability)
./xemacs-packages/etc/jde/java/src/jde/debugger/interpret/\
syntaxtree/UnaryExpressionNotPlusMinus.java
That whole directory is generated by javacc from expression.jj.
In theory one could just omit it from the distribution, since it isn't need
to run, and it isn't really the source. In practice, make_parser looks like
a total crock, and no one besides Paul is likely to have their in
environment set up in such a way that it would actually run.
The whole problem goes away in JDE 2.2.8. Is there an attempt to upgrade in
the works?
