The reverse situation also seemed to cause problems, ie: a FreeBSD binary being accessed by a Linux JDK running under FreeBSD. Apparently their were link errors and other problems. I was having a conversation with someone today and before I even looked at the mailing list, I said that it was unlikely to work. Is this the case? Thank you. Frederick N. Brier
