Thank you!  It doesn't make any difference where the bug is if it keeps 
your program from running.

When are you going to fix it?  I suspect that some other problems with 
xcdroast are caused by the hal bug and not xcdroast but I haven't had 
time to trace and won't until I get the Java bug under control.
