Oh, OK, so I will not worry about the self-referencing issue.  BSD/OS
has a java beta out, but I am too busy on the book to upgrade.  I will
not worry about it.  Seems kaffe can run the jdbc classes just fine.

Oh, that is fine.  I just needed to know the code was OK.  Kaffe people
can download the JAR file.  The great part is that they work on any
platform.
