Becaue Per didn't want to use -bootclasspath for something that
didn't do exactly what Sun's -bootclasspath does. I think he's

Ok. I'll look into doing that. Having said that I did a fresh
build from CVS with my patches in (this morning) and it seemed to work
ok.


I'm doing another build to double check - once I've finished I'll check
everything in.
