At least... but there are some important breakthroughs. A look at the
README shows that some longstanding problems have been addressed:

- The "incompatible raster" problems have been fixed, allowing Swing/AWT
apps to run on many more X servers. Also fixed is the problem preventing
use with X servers with non-native byte order.

- The Java Platform Debugging Architecture is now present (back-ported
from JDK1.3), as is a new graphical debugger. If everything works, it
might even put the Inprise JDK port out of business :-).

- More problems with native thread and green thread robustness have been
addressed.
