Just did a hunt and amongst other
things the actual jython site says (http://www.jython.org/platform.html):

Kaffe

Jython does not work with the current version available from transvirtual.
This appears to be both due to some small incompatibilities between this
Java VM and SUN's version, as well as at least one serious issue which is
the lack of a java.math.BigInteger class -- this lack will be a problem
for any VM that only implements the PersonalJava subset of the full Java
spec. It should be possible to get Jython working on this VM if someone
has the time to invest, please let us know if you have any success here or
need any help.
