Hi Nektarios,

argh, embarassing you wasn't the intent, I just could not reproduce it, 
afair. My apologies if it came accross that way. :/

Thanks! I've been feeding our patches back upstream to GNU Classpath on 
the weekend, and now have one change left over to
test, and then I can synchronize Kaffe with Classpath again, and make 
sure it will work with the upcoming 0.93 release of Classpath
without much fuss.

Currently, there is still a part of the native libs that I need to drag 
around otherwise (native math code), and getting rid of that will make
reuse of unmodified Classpath installs much easier.

cheers,
