Guess what? I could manually compile ThreadState.java for example. That 
is:
. ../../BUILD_ENVIRONMENT
$JAVA at.dms.kjc.Main ThreadState.java

Then running it prints three "success" then segfaults.

- Interestingly another test that failed (internal error while 
compiling) was URLTest. Again, manually compiling it succeeds. Likewise 
for running it. That's with the "pthreads" implementation. I could 
manually compile many of those tests that failed to compile at make 
check.

- Case of DoubleComp.java. Even manually compiling it fails with kjc 
(internal error, java/lang/NullPoinerException caught). However, 
compiling it with jikes succeeds. The test run succeeds too.

Bye,
