4950	Bad loop over attribute list	anonymous	team	"
file :src/org/openstreetmap/josm/io/OsmApi.java 

line 124:       for (int i=0; i< qName.length(); i++) {

it loops over the chars in the string to get the attributes, this causes an out of bounds error. 

the code should be :
  for (int i=0; i< atts.getLength(); i++) {


see my code changes here :

This is why we should be testing with the gcj because it catches such sloppy code.
