I could not get TYA to compile out of the box, as Nate suggested.  This was
becuase I had to set #defined FreeBSD in configure.in, as you suggest in your
README. Once I had done that, I believe that it compiled fine.

I am not a configure guru (by any stretch of the imagination!), but isn't there
a way to do a "uname" in the configure script to determine platform, and then
define #defined FreeBSD based on this?  

Also, with our new naming scheme for java, our JDK 1.1.7 get identified as the
Byrne 1.1.7-vX, since java -version returns just "1.1.7" (as it should).  So if
there are any differences in the Byrne Linux port and ours TYA may not compile.
Using "java -fullversion" correctly identifies the FreeBSD java version.  Does
this work on the Linux ones, and can you change the configure script to use it
instead?

I'm using:
gateway# java -fullversion
java_X full version "jdk1.1.7-FreeBSD:1998/11/5"
