Can you try svn trunk?  We'll release a new version in a couple of days and it
would be good to know, if that bug is fixed.

I got the following error while compiling SVN version.

mkdir -p -- classes
../../src/lib/vm/reference/java/lang/VMClassLoader.java:50: error: Class or
interface `java.lang.instrument.Instrumentation' not found in import.
   import java.lang.instrument.Instrumentation;
          ^
../../src/lib/vm/reference/java/lang/VMClassLoader.java:415: error: Type
`Instrumentation' not found in declaration of field `instrumenter'.
     static final Instrumentation instrumenter = null;
                  ^

You need at least GNU Classpath 0.91.

Now I got another error while compiling cacao SVN on Alpha(b2) using either
gcc-2.95 or gcc-3.3.5

exceptions.c  -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/exceptions.o
exceptions.c: In function `exceptions_handle_exception':
exceptions.c:1384: error: `asm_vm_call_method_exception_handler' undeclared
(first use in this function)
exceptions.c:1384: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
exceptions.c:1384: error: for each function it appears in.)
make[3]: *** [exceptions.lo] Error 1

the configure command:
./configure --prefix=/nfs/unsafe/yshi/profile/old --with-ffcall --disable-jit
--enable-intrp --with-classpath-prefix=/nfs/unsafe/yshi/profile/cp91/

The interpreter is dead.
