This is a duplicate of #527524

For the specific case of Pygments, Jython 2.7 trunk now compiles this just fine. This is almost certainly because of a fix made some months ago to support large collection literals, which is the usual reason for such large methods (http://hg.python.org/jython/rev/845d319f5b89)

I ran nosetests and we are seeing 3 failing tests out of 1130, due to regex issues:

But this is a separate issue in our implementation of sre.
