I wonted, and i would like to. Its work in progress, and may longer then I thought.

Between first verion of patch - where was this original statement - and second version, where I wrote a bit more, several things happened:

I tried to force to load sveral explicit classes directly in java code by bootclasslaoder, however, not successfully.
So I tried to change xbootclasspath parameter. It didn`t help either!  However, same change on commandline usage outside makefile helped :-/. But caused 7other tests to fail (the parser family)

So I ended in no op for Friday. There is still few ways to try but - as we (did we?) agreed - it do not need to be blocker for patch itself. The patch can lurk for a while in Head before tests are fixed.


So answer is yes. But may happen taht with longer delay :(

Thanx for your thought!
