[rvm-research] MMTk command line options don't do anything

Hello,

I would like to use JikesRVM and MMTk for my masters project,  but it 
doesn't seem to work properly.
I downloaded it, set up the MMTk environment in Eclipse and I can 
successfully run different garbage collectors.

But some of the command line options(which I set in the Run 
configurations menu in Eclipse) don't seem to be working at all, for example
"MMTk/harness/test-scripts/Lists.script  plan=MS verbose=1 gcEvery=ALLOC"
only executes three GC runs, so clearly not after every allocation.
Similarly when I add "trace=OBJECT" or "trace=TRACEOBJECT" I would 
expect some tracing output but I see none.

Am I missing something obvious here?

Thanks a lot,

Lucas
