Yes, that is true, but most production systems run even older versions, and I want a patch that works on those versions. I am now building packages for Debian lenny (gcc 4.3.2) and Redhat 5 (even older). I see this patch as a work around that gives me time for the next step. > It looks like you're making progress, but I urge you to move to the > new gc or your time may be wasted on the old one. The next step is to upgrade to that latest GCC and the latest GC and the latest Lucene and have that running on Debian Testing. I will be looking into getting USE_MMAP to work, as I think that would be a more definite solution. However if I enable it, it segvs. Are there any specific obstacles for USE_MUNMAP when used in GCJ, or should it just work? Erik
