I have a testcase for java.util.Abstract* that I've been intending to
try out against Kaffe and Classpath, but I haven't been able to make
time yet. I wrote the testcase in the hope of tracking down an error in
nrdo (http://nrdo.sab39.org/) that causes errors in some cases.

The testcase is completely written and should be usable by anyone who's
interested - the part I haven't found time for is building a recent
version of Kaffe or Classpath and actually running the test and
evaluating the results.

If anyone's interested, I can send them the tests. If not, I'll get to
it sometime but it'll probably miss 1.1, of course.

Stuart.
