That's what I thought when I was speaking with the ikvm guys

I'm building limewire against classpath. It should run on the same JVM
that OOo runs on (gcj IIRC).

ikvm needs classpath to build happily

As it stands, ikvm is my top priority as it's currently breaking the FE
packaging rules of being a binary only package (it was accepted in like
this). Limewire would be nice, but it's a big package and I doubt will
be that simple to build.

TTFN
