One suggestion, not sure if this will work. I have created a patch
file to move from jdk1.2.1 to jdk1.2.2 on the scsl site. You may be able
to reverse patch that jdk1.2.2 release to create a jdk1.2.1 release
which should work with the blackdown diffs.
Although there are over 1000 fixes I am hoping that we can move
the blackdown port to jdk1.2.2 when the current issues have been resolved.
