Well, you need to distinguish between the VM and its class library.
Jikes RVM used to work with both the GNU classpath and Apache Harmony
classlibs; now it just works with GNU classpath (or is the OpenJDK port
ready now?)

I think the OP got his system working with the Harmony VM and the
Harmony class library. For his "works with" list I thus think it would
be worthwhile to list the VM/class library *combinations*.

Best wishes,

Andreas
