An omission on my part- sorry.  JVM 1.3 has been tested on Solaris 8 since
Finn was kind enough to add the -o switch (I think that was rc1 or
earlier)-- Thanks Finn!  However, I forgot to include this info with my
other Solaris test info.

* "Tested" means regrtest.py (modified for Jython) and all the scripts I
had at the time worked.

Yes on the Solaris 8- all good news.

JPython1.1 is not recommended, and unnecessary as Jython
+ jvm1.3 + Solaris 8 is OK.
