After trying several other builds, I can get a clean build providing I start
with SoyLatte.

However, if I try to use any OpenJDK7 build (including Langdon's binaries
from last Summer), no good. It always seems to fail over the Queens.java
test. It doesn't always fail with the same message, and the OpenJDK7 builds
(including some I made myself) have otherwise worked fine - they're my
standard JRE for all of my Eclipse sessions at home, for example, and I
haven't had a single failure from them.

Has anyone else tried to used an OpenJDK7 environment to build MLVM, rather
than SoyLatte?

Thanks,

Ben
