Right, that's what happaned here, I just wasn't being clear on that.

As for the config files - it seems very strange that writing some config
files should take that long. It certainly smells like a JVM bug...

Well, again, it does work with the Blackdown port of 1.2, as long as you use
the built-in JTI (and I think it works with TYA too). The ract that
switching JIT makes it not work is, to me, an indication of a JTI bug. It
would usually be difficult for an application to depend on a JIT bug (an API
bug is another matter though).
