v29.2 Java FontLock mode weirdness ?

[Jason Vas Dias]

  Good day -

    Could anyone please enlighten me as to why, in enclosed Screenshot
    of Emacs 29.2, running under Fedora 40 / XFce4 on x86_64, in Java,
    the identifier after '>' in an 'if' clause is being specially highlighted ,
    but not one after '>=' ? ie. 'bursttime_end' identifier is shown in
    green bold only when after a '>' character, not when after '>=' .
    
    It looks like a bug to me, if only a niggle. Why doesn't this occur
    in C font-lock mode ?

  Thanks, Best Regards,
  Jason
