Since slashdot has already announced that kaffe+jikes is a complete
open source solution, we might as well make it true...
My concerns: first, could you try Edouard's LostFrame test and see
whether kaffe is in fact unable to handle jikes-generated code?
Second, what about the bugs in Jikes that prevent the run-time library
from compiling? If you fix them, will the result still be compilable
with javac/pizza?
