Go ahead; the extra knob needs well indicated. I'll test after the
fact.
I have no issues with preferring either of Jikes or the selected-JDK's
javac; net/spread was tested with both.
spread does not need a java compiler at runtime; it's just a
build-dependency. If this is mainly to set a runtime dependency,
then net/spread won't need it.
n.b. There is already a workaround required to support Jikes; that
is, to find rt.jar, I have to use CLASSPATH=${JAVA_CLASSES} ${JAVAC}
as the invocation, unless you've fixed this :)
Cheers
Joshua
