OK, the alphaworks site is now back up. I know people told me to wait
until Monday to get the latest but I wanted to try it now.
The first error came up because I didn't have the right version of
libstdc++ so I got that and jikes could now run. I can see it's much
faster. However, it produced this output
*** Warning: "/usr/local/java/swing/swing-1.0.3/swingall.jar " is either
not a valid zip file or it contains a zip file comment. If it contains a
comment, rezip it without the comment...
followed by many errors involving the swing components.
What does this indicate? I never saw THESE errors with javac.
