Speaking of icc, does kaffe compile on i386-linux with
icc?

I'd guess that most of them are kjc compiler related,
because most *.fail files are about kaffe not being
able to find the test class in my case (SuSE Linux
7.2a (ia64) - Kernel 2.4.4-SMP (2), gcc 3.0, from HP's
TestCenter ;). Could you run 'make check VERBOSE=1'
and see how many tests don't compile ? Or check if for
some missing test classes the .class files are
actually missing?

cheers,
