That seems to have mostly fixed things, but Mercurial doesn't work:
having said that, I don't know if Mercurial should work with jython
and jdk8.  I can't think of any reason why not, but

I ran the tests, and all is mostly cool up to here:

clean_py_class_files:

init:
    [mkdir] Created dir: /home/aph/jython/tests/modjy/build

do_test:
     [echo] Running tests against JDK 1.5, Servlet j2ee1.3

     ...

I guess this means that the testsuite wants jaxp to be installed
somewhere.  But I have no idea where.
