Aside from a few of the changes to Classpath (like to java.lang.String) you
stuck to the spirit of the integration just fine. Japhar is perfectly
allowed to have its classes mimick JDK's.
I'm happy the whole thing is finally working, and this is definitely the
easiest way to get something put into Japhar's CVS (just avoid the sticky
problems altogether). Sometimes pragmatism *should* win out over idealism
:) We can go through and make some of the caching and speed modifications
later when the thing is well-tested. Release early, release often.
Kudos, Aaron! Thanks many millions!
