Okay, so this got me quite a bit farther... haha... it appears there
is something wrong with the implementation of
java.io.ObjectStreamClass since once we hit lookup() the application
kinda just exits.  We get so far as the following line in
japizeClass(String) before dying (or exiting gracefully if you prefer).

      ObjectStreamClass stream = ObjectStreamClass.lookup(c);

In looking at this class I fail to see how it would actually work.  Is
Geoff Berry still around?
