There is actually a good reason. If the 1.5 classes are missing, the chances that a 1.5 compiled class will run are slim. This is what Andrew John Hughes was trying to address with his proposal to implement the 1.5 classes as much as possible (using 1.4 sources). I haven't thought about it

Hi I've done the same comparison 6 weeks ago with Tom Tromey, and we were at 75% back then. 5 % in 6 weeks. 20 % to go. You do the math. :) I am excited too but on the other hand I worry about a lot bugs popping up ... Has anyone seen that one:
