The `javac' provided with `kaffe' is exactly the one from JDK 1.1.[23] 
(I'm not sure which one), so it does support inner classes.

Certainly not, since Java 1.0 VMs won't even be aware that such and
such classes are inner classes, the VM specification hasn't changed at 
all.

This has nothing to do with inner classes, does it?
