Hi Greg, I'm still looking for a solution to the bug and found that Sun changed the licensing of the JDK beginning with update 3 and introduced the Java Research License (JRL) to simplify the existing SCSL. (https://tiger.dev.java.net/) You're able to download the latest sources under this license including all the bugfixes since the FCS release under the SCSL. From what I understand, I can download the sources and this should help me solving my problem. The question is now, could I make a patch against the original SCSL version to be included in the BSD patches? From the license FAQ, this should be possible. Or could the updated sources even be used directly for the native BSD release? I hope you can give me some information on this since I couldn't find much on that issue. While I'm sure it helps me fix my problem, it would be nice to solve problems like that "at the root" and also help others. Cheers, Andreas Krebs Chronolabs GmbH akrebs@chronolabs.de
