Follow-up Comment #1:

I believe you've hit this issue, mentioned in the "Recent News" section of the
manual:

  Kawa traditionally followed Java in allowing you to pass an array with the
"rest" arguments to a varargs method. (A "varargs" method includes Java
varargs methods, as well as Kawa methods with a #!rest parameter that is
explicitly typed to be an array type.) For example, you could write:

  (define args (Object[] 3 "cm"))
  (java.lang.String:format "length:%s%s" args)

  This is deprecated, and may stop working in a future release.
  Instead, use the splice operator:

  (java.lang.String:format "length:%s%s" @args)
