It's a bug in kjc-1.4F-egp1 that you can ignore, it's fixed in KOPI CVS
Tree, but another recent bug prevent compilation of Klasses.jar.  I'm
working with Thomas Graf on next release of kjc.

Magic comment `// Sort output' will pipe output to `sort' program.
Differences are in access modifiers values.

Is `java' the current compiled kaffe tree ?  Or a previous installed
release ?  I attach a small script `kaffe-test' that will help you to
use kaffe binary in build tree.  Simply replace `java' by `kaffe-tree
top-directory-of-your-build-tree'.

I think you can use Jikes as javac compiler :-(
