John or anyone else, is there some reason why GNU Classpath can't work
with the JDK from Sun as well as Japhar or Kaffe? I realize John
wants jnilink to have special hooks into the VM and we obviously
have no control over the Sun JDK. Can there be a solution to the
multiple VM problem which relies only on what is provided by the VM
spec, etc? Ie, I thought one of the goals of GNU Classpath was to
be a transparent replacement for essentially `classes.zip'.
