Bingo, Pat! I added that one character to exceptions.c
and voila - my patches against the CVS tree give me a healthy
MIPS/Linux interpreter! If anyone wants the CVS diff output,
as opposed to my diffs against 1.0.7, just say so. I don't think
any of the files in question have changed since 1.0.7 in any case.

That's very often the case in this business. ;-)

Um, well, if I go to my kaffe root and type
developers/FullTest.sh `pwd`
or
developers/FullTest.sh `pwd` `pwd`/fulltest
I get::
touch: creating `/home/pat/kaffe-core/obj/Trace-kaffe-jit3-debug.txt': No such file or directory
kaffe-jit3-debug:

etc, etc.
