No, it would not work. And apologies in advance for the .u files. :)
See the HACKING file on jikes 1.11 (which is not out).

Yes, finding the libart cvs stuff is a pain.

Okay, configure should have done the symlink for you, some sort of problem?

Known about it, but haven't looked into this yet. It isn't a problem
when using jikes of course. I'll probably add support for kjc next.

It happens.

Hmm... let's add a rm -rf .deps to clean.

I compiled earlier today without the problems you mention. Could it
be javah in 1.1.5 is messed up? I'm using 1.1.7B.

Been playing with that today. I don't know if you did your get after
my last commit or not but you might want to try again just to see
those changes to where we install which in your case might be
something like /usr/local/japhar/lib/classpath,
/usr/local/japhar/share/classpath/glibj.zip. I haven't tried yet so I
may have made a mistake.
