Currently running: jonc-~,3:35pm> java -version java version "1.3.1-internal" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.1-internal-jonc-011015-09:24) Classic VM (build 1.3.1-internal-jonc-011015-09:24, green threads, nojit) Only "green" threads available, but working pretty good nonetheless. You have to build the native version from the ports, though.
