[kaffe] Illegal Instruction with ARM and JIT

[Andreas Kielkopf]

Hello

We also tried to compile Kaffe for the ARM720T and have the same
Problem.
The Interpreter works, but if we try to use the JIT, kaffe stops with an
"Illegal Instruction". We tried to debug, but we couldn't get the
debugger to work on our Target.

We also noticed a diffrence between our Target (Illegal Instruction) and
the same binary running in the "Scratchbox". In Scratchbox the same
binary worked without an "Illegal Instruction".

It would be very fine for us, to be able to use the JIT on our target.
So we hope anyone knows the solution.
