Well, it is conceivable that I was actually compiling it with jikes, and
only used Kaffe to run it. In fact, now that I think of it, this is most
likely what I did. Even then, with some version of the driver I had to
patch a runtime version check to make it behave as if Kaffe was a 1.1 JVM.

It is true that Kaffe has a number of problems. Nevertheless, given that
it is licensed under the GPL some people prefer it over the alternatives
even if it has some drawbacks.
