As I mention above, I've heard nothing since then.


Now for the new question.

I have been using my modified version under the name
  mysql-connector-java-5.0.4+-bin.jar
That is, I put that file on a web server and refer to it in html
files.  I find that the applets I write, even though they do not
contain any explicit references to that or any other version of
mysql-connector, end up making http requests for 
   mysql-connector-java-5.0.4-bin.jar
It is my current theory that my 5.0.4+-bin jar contains code -
yours, not mine - that generates such requests.
Can you confirm or deny that?  If so, give me an idea of where
to find it and how to change it.

I have also seen certain machines get errors trying to run my 
code, where the backtraces clearly come from OTHER versions of
mysql-connector -- they show line numbers with function calls 
that are not in MY version!

So I'm trying to figure out where these other versions come from,
who's asking for them and how I can fix the problem.  
Any information about this will be appreciated.
