/**
 * This interface is the same as Accessor, just
 * tagged as java.rmi.Remote. This intervening
 * layer is necessary so that the rmi compiler
 * interpretes concrete multiarrays like MultiArrayImpl
 * as return by value. Otherwise, if Accessor itself
 * were remote, rmic would generate stubs for MultiArrayImpl
 * to be a remote reference.
 * <p>
 * As of this writing (jdk1.1),
 * the rmi compiler <code>rmic</code> is braindead in the
 * sense that it doesn't recognize that java.rmi.RemoteException isa
 * java.io.IOException. Hence, we reproduce each method declaration
 * from Accessor, narrowing the throws specification.
