I agree. And a since the old form of defineClass() isn't even used from
the rest of GNU Claspath I think we can remove it immediatly. Runtimes

If nobody objects I want to commit the attached patch next week.

        * vm/reference/java/lang/VMClassLoader.java (defineClass): Removed
        version that didn't take a ProtectionDomain.

Cheers,

Mark
