This is a smoke test of dex conversion, which checks to see that a "this" argument is never reused for a temporary. (Background: Popular debuggers will get confused if "this" is reused, and it arguably should be the case that the target object of an instance method being executed ought never be gc'ed anyway, and overwriting "this" could in fact cause that to happen.) This test compares emitted code against a known-good (via eyeballing) version, so it is possible for this test to spuriously fail if other aspects of conversion end up altering the output in innocuous ways.
