Seeing similar with eclipse-photran:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal
org.eclipse.tycho:tycho-compiler-plugin:0.20.0:compile (default-compile)
on project org.eclipse.photran.core.vpg: Compilation failure:

[ERROR] public interface IASTListNode<T> extends List<T>, IASTNode
[ERROR] ^^^^^^^^^^^^
[ERROR] Duplicate methods named spliterator with the parameters () and
() are inherited from the types List<T> and Collection<T>


Is there a generic fix for this type of error?
