I agree, this is the best way for us to continue delivering a complete system. Ideally "someone" will write a jar for the Classpath tools directory, and then we'll just build it as part of libjava. I would prefer that this not be a requirement for getting the fastjar patch checked in, basically since I'm not in the mood to actually write the thing :-) Tom
