Correction - I retraced my steps and realized that I hadn't tested
beta9 with VM 1.3.1 and xemacs. I have done so and it *does* work,
so it would seem that the real problem is in VM 1.3.0, which is known
to have JPDA issues.
To summarize
beta9 beta10
-----------------------------------------------
FSF/1.3 GOOD* BAD*
Xemacs/1.3 BAD* BAD*
FSF/1.3.1 GOOD GOOD
Xemacs/1.3.1 GOOD GOOD
* results were seemingly random - sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
In these cases the GOOD/BAD indicator show what happened most of the time.
Apologies for the confusion,
