But what's intriguing here is that TestFloatDouble and
ThreadStop are being successfully *compiled*, wheras
all other test/regression Java files are causing JIT3 to
explode on RISC platforms during their compilation.
I agree that, once they've been compiled, it's hardly
surprising that they do not fail in execution!
