This is a new set of PRE-ALPHA source code patches for the JDK 1.2.2 source.
These patches are unofficial and no abuse should be directed towards the
FreeBSD java porting team for them :).  This new set (patchset 5) can be 
gotten from http://www.eyesbeyond.com/freebsd-jdk122-patches-5.tar.gz 
(this message is included in the tar ball as the file ANNOUNCEMENT).  

Please read the file THANKS for a list of the large number of people who 
should be thanked that things have gotten this far!

The following ISSUES have been addressed since patchset 4 (see the ISSUES
files for more details).

Issue 1.  A clean build on FreeBSD 4.0 is much closer, testing and work is
          still needed though.
Issue 6.  Robert Swindells provided an updated font.properties file. 
Issue 8e. libhprof now builds (but only with gcc 2.95.2 -- it generates
          an internal compiler error under gcc 2.7.2.3).
Issue 12. A number of open source JITs have been tested by Fuyuhiko
          Maruyama.  He has provided instructions and, where necessary,
          patches which are available on Kees Jan Koster's web site
          (see below).

There have also been two additional ISSUES.

For more information about the port, consult Kees Jan Koster's web pages at
http://web.inter.nl.net/users/kjkoster/java/index.html

Please test as much as possible!
