Instead of /usr/local/share/kaffe, you probably mean
/usr/local/share/kaffe/Klasses.jar.  But you add a link to classes.zip
in /usr/local/share/kaffe, the kaffe wrapper script will automatically
add classes.zip to the CLASSPATH in the proper place, i.e., after
Klasses.jar.

Kaffe 1.0.b3 is terribly broken, better get a newer snapshot.

Check out the CVS version from the last Thursday and you should get
better results.  And when I say Thursday, I really mean it; the
current CVS tree is broken for systems other than FreeBSD (and maybe
Linux), because of a recent optimization that should have been made
specifically for FreeBSD but ended up affecting all other OSs :-(

Hopefully Godmar or someone else will fix this soon.
