Awesome. I should have something to upload to experimental tonight which 
fixes ftbfs of nice (#300953), then there is just one more ftbfs to go 
(rxtx). Currently Kaffe is outside of testing due to lacking some hints, 
I think Jeroen (or volron) will take care of that.

I desperately need to look at netbsd and cygwin, to get some patches for 
those merged in as well. I've also overeagerly merged in some new NIO 
selector code from Classpath that broke Tomcat 5, that's being fixed 
atm, thanks to Guilhem.

cheers,
