I tweaked gcj's serialization code so that it worked correctly with a variety of code, including jonas. This was a difficult and tedious job, to say the least. The result was pretty robust, however. Now, gcj's own serialization code has been replaced with the Classpath code on the grounds that it was better tested, and had the bugs ironed out. I haven't yet tried large-scale applications, but I have a bad feeling about this. If needs be we could just get libgcj's own serialization code back. Andrew.
