We finally have a committer who has access to the VAJ classes, woohoo!

You see the problem, nobody has been able to even try to compile them.

In this particular case, the method in VAJWorkspaceScanner may have
been necessary as match has been protected in DirectoryScanner until
2001-11-21.

I think Conor has been doing something like this with faked
implementations for the starteam classes, but we didn't have a chance
to do the same in the VAJ case (no accessible javadocs or something).

The only reasons not to do something like this are suspected legal
problems.
