 Hi Markus,

there is two things you need to do:

a) find the correct SP_OFFSET for the threads package.  As luck will have it,
we just got a shipment of 10 arm boxes, and I tested the jthread package
on one of them.  It seems to work with SP_OFFSET 23.

b) more importantly, you have to write the macro sysdepCallMethod that
goes in kaffe/config/arm32/common.h.  This requires a good deal of 
understanding of the asm construct in gcc as well as a thorough 
understanding of the arm's calling convention.  

Then you add the directories config/arm32 and config/arm32/netbsd and
populate them, add an entry to the configure files if necessary and then 
it should "just" run the interpreter.

Good luck!
