Well, 1.5 months actually.  But yeah, I probably wouldn't have made it
back to you after 3 months anyway. :/

Just rebuilt jython with gcj-3.3, and it seems to run fine under kaffe.
Though this might be because gcj is fixed, or it might just be because
kaffe has removed the assert() (as mentioned earlier in the bug log).

Anyway, I'm not the person to go digging through and/or rebuilding kaffe
to learn more.  I don't have a lot to do with java these days (and I
currently have jython up for adoption).

So I've tested (jython, gcj build, kaffe runtime) and this is what I can
offer you.  Any more information will probably have to come from the
kaffe people I'm afraid.
