I tried your TimerTest on the current gcj/libgcj and it seems to work perfectly on
my SMP ia32 linux machine.
Is your libgcj older than 2000-03-27? I rewrote much of libgcj's posix-threads
code then. Before that, the wait/notify mechanism was mostly broken.

Cool. libgcj's URLClassLoader (in fact a lot of our classloader stuff) is rather
ugly. I for one would love to see it merged/replaced with classpath's
implementations.
