I compiled it. That's all I can say for now <G>. I'd been at work for 14
hours when I finished and didn't take time to test it. I wanted to go home
and try to retrace what I'd done on a clean install of cygwin. This hasn't
gone as well, but I think I'm close.  In answer to your question: I haven't
ported the thread system, but I'm willing to do so. There is a THREADS=win32
in libjava/config.in, is this waiting for an implementation? Would it be
better to implement this or use the cygnus pthreads library?
