has anyone been able to build/use kaffe on pmax?  I finally got it to
build on pmax by adding several patches to the kaffe-1.0.6 which is in
pkgsrc.  I suspect some of the patches are good, some are probably not
good, but i don't know if this is the cause of my problem or not.

Anyway, after it builds, i try running the tests with
  cd  work.mipsel/kaffe-1.0.6/test/regression && make check VERBOSE=yes

and it fails them all with an assertion error.

So, anyone else get any further?

The patches I added are at
http://www-mtl.mit.edu/~mcmahill/netbsd/kaffe_patches-20010321.tar

just 

cd /usr/pkgsrc/lang/kaffe
tar xvf kaffe_patches-20010321.tar
make makepatchsum && make

then you too can lose.
