By the way, how come everyone else isn't complaining about #6938? Why am I the only one who notices it? Does everybody else have a bootstrap class path that contains the java class path as a subset?
As far as I have seen most VMs have their own System/Application classloader. The SableVM developers were also rewriting it (to make sure ProtectionDomains were set correctly). So I guess everybody works around it instead of collaborating on the version in CVS. Probably only the Orp developers used this class as is for their VM.
For Jaos, I can confirm Mark assertion. The classloader is one of the few classes that must be available at bootstrap.
In fact, I assume that only a JVM written in Java is able to use this class for the bootstrap of the VM. (Correct me if wrong)
