Sorry, recently modified as I am, I don't have the itch to fix this on JDK 1.3... I support you removing it from that platform.

I would like to see this failure go away one way or the other on JDK 1.3 runs. Looking at svn log, you seem to be the "recently modified person" and the author of the test! Do you have itch to modify the test?

Otherwise, I will likely disable the test for JDK1.3. This platform is getting little too old..

    I was the one who wrote this (quite a while ago, actually), and you're
    right, as it stands it won't run on JDK 1.3.

    However, I think there is value in testing the getNextException()
    methods on JDK 1.3.  Can't we test for the JDK version in the test and
    exclude the tests of getCause() if it's JDK 1.3?
