I've been using exactly the same configuration as you (classpath 0.03,
orp 1.09, jikes from CVS). I have switched from RedHat to Debian a week
ago and now for some reason both Jikes and ORP refuses to compile so I'm
unable to test it again right now. OTOH it seemed like Eric Blake knew
about this bug. I'll test it again when I get rid of compilation
problems and let you know about results.
One note: I have been using optimized ORP version with --with-jikes
switch only. I doubt it makes any difference but...
