Thanks for committing this so quickly.

However, you didn't update the ChangeLog.

Talking of ChangeLog, when you do your regular merges,
should you blindly update all the new ChangeLog entries 
to the current date (since that's when they really got applied
to mainline) or should you do a "merge sort" of ChangeLog 
entries?

The current situation is a bit weird since the reverse
chronological order property of the ChangeLog is
violated on such a merge - for example, Anthony's
change to VMClassLoader.java from 2004-06-17 now
appears *after* Tom Fitzsimmons's change of 2004-05-26.

I do not wish to increase your work unnecessarily, but
if there's a simple way of achieving this, it would be really
nice.

Ranjit.
