I am using 1.0.7.  I didn't do anything special, so I
am not sure ab out intrp/jit/jit3.  I compiled for
Darwin/x86 and for Mac OS X 10.2 (had to use the old
compiler - too many problems with kaffe source for
gcc3).

I can send the patches, just a sub-directory for the
OS and CPU - these might be the problem.  I am also
going to upgrade to Jikes 1.17 - darwin has 1.15 which
does not work with kaffe.

The test all fail on Darwin 5.x /x86, three say they
pass, but I don't think so, since kaffe does not run.
Darwin 6.x/ppc has 12 of 114 fail.  Probably accurate.

I am more interested in the intel version, OS X has a
JVM.
