IMHO we should try to fix the problem in GNU Classpath. I think that we should also try to send all changes that we need to make against GNU Classpath to the GNU Classpath developers. If we get our fixes included, we can remove the patches for the fix with the next classpath release. This keeps our patch sets small. Moreover, all of Classpath's clients (e.g. Jato VM, Kaffe) will profit from the fixes. Kind regards, Erik Brangs |
