Hallo Andreas,

could you post the error message from the configure script?

I'd expect it to bomb, since the vxworks port has not been merged back 
into the main tree. You can grab the sources for x86-vxworks at 
http://www.kaffe.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/pocketlinux/XOE_1.0/src/kaffe-all/src/config/i386/vxworks/
or 
http://www.kaffe.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/pocketlinux/XOE_1.0/src/kaffe-all/src/config/mips/vxworks/
  the two ports to vxworks available in the pocketlinux fork of kaffe. 
Note that the code there may need to be tweaked to current interfaces 
(in Kaffe and/or VxWorks), since it is a few years old, and pretty close 
to the system. But I guess with a bit of work you should be able to get 
it to work with 1.0.7 or 1.1.5. Depending on what your application 
needs, 1.0.7 may be easier for 1.1-style apps, while 1.1.5 would be 
better for 1.4-APIs utilising apps.

Transvirtual has ceased to exist in mid 2002.
