Yeah, I've seen your thread over there. At least we have a good idea of
what is not working. Unfortunately I have this feeling that exception
handling on ARM with GCJ is an all time favorite. Hopefully we can get
things to fly with GCC 4.3 then.

Btw: Your statement that 4.3 is not widely in use is not quite right:
Fedora 9 and Debian Lenny are build with it or are in the process of
transition.

Regards
Robert
