I'd really like to see 1.3.1 for sparc linux running with hotspot.  I 
have need to run a system on it that requires 1.3 and 1.3 ONLY.  It 
won't run on 1.2.2 and most likely, it won't run on 1.4 since 1.4 
breaks JDBC.  Even if the changes needed would be trivial, it's a 
moot point since the system I wish to run is proprietary and without 
source.  I assume someone out there has a working sparc-linux 
development machine, but I'd be willing to spare a temporary account 
on my own if it would help get a hotspot runtime running.
