I've absolutely no idea! When I get my machine back next week, I'll look
at releasing what's done so far. My changes will also make it back into
the Kaffe tree then. Also, I'm looking at doing JIT sometime; given the
straightforward internals, if I put my mind to it it shouldn't take more
than a couple of weeks of spare time. Then again, spare time is pretty
hard come by at the moment :-)

I've cured the threading problems now, although Kaffe 0.9.0 itself is a
bit buggy. 0.9.1 should be a lot better, and will be out RSN I believe.

To be perfectly honest, I really don't have the first clue. Perhaps the
resident Java brain (Peter?) can shed some light on whether the libraries
for say AWT from i386 Java may work. Depends if there's a platform
independant way of calling external native code libraries, I guess.
