Depending on the version of classes.zip used, the initialization
of the System class is carried out either by System.<clinit>,
which needn't be called explicitly, or by System.initializeSystemClass,
which does. Damned inelegant from Sun to introduce such a
problem, if you ask me.
To fix, look for the call to initializeSystemClass (somewhere in
the JVM initalization code, probably called from kaffe.c right
after reading in CLASSPATH and switches) and comment it
out, or otherwise neuter it. I can't be more specific, I no longer
hack Kaffe since I began work on a JVM written in Java.
