[kaffe] classloader problem on blackfin

[Jeff Ramin]

Hi folks.

I'm trying to get kaffe to run on an ADSP-BF536 board, and I'm getting complaints
from the classloader. I'm just trying to run "HelloWorld" via:

kaffe.flt -v -Xbootclasspath:/kaffe/rt.jar:/kaffe/kaffe-vminterface.jar HelloWorldApp

I'm using kaffe-1.1.8. I tried 1.1.9, but it's dependence on glib-2.0 threw a wrench
into that.

Output:

I've google for a solution, but haven't found one. Any thoughts?

Thanks!
