Yes, I just upgraded xerces but it requires changes to GCC I just
checked in a few minutes ago...

Yes, I agree we should do that.  To date, rhug has been a fun experiment
and has been useful for driving a lot of quality into gcj/libgcj.  But
clearly the resulting packages are useful on their own as well.   I use
rhino/pgsql-jdbc a fair bit, for instance.

My suggestion is that we aim for a frozen rhug "release" that works with
GCC 3.3, which is supposed to be released in mid-February.  We should
get Tomcat4 working for this release.

Gary - how many more packages are required for Tomcat4?
