So I c&p it once again:

<c&p-ed>
address@hidden:~/deb-pkgs/cp-tools/cp-tools-0.0.20020812$ (cd src; jikes

Is anyone maintaining this code? Can I count on that it will be fixed in
resonable time? (I ask because it seems that last change to *.java files
I am intersted in - was done 9 months ago)

They don't say anything that the latest version is not stable.
However I fetched kawa sources for:

kawa-1.6.1.tar.gz   545 KB  1999-05-13 
kawa-1.6.60.tar.gz  795 KB  1999-09-15
kawa-1.6.66.tar.gz  916 KB  2000-03-22

1.6.1 and 1.6.50 don't contain for ex. *StartPC* string at all.
1.6.66 has for ex. getStartPC function but not in Variable class
in .66 in ./gnu/bytecode/ChangeLog it is said it is new method
(1999-12-24) Per Bothner <address@hidden> entry.
The function exists in Scope.java and CodeAttr.java.
It is exactly the same for 1.6.98.

So additional question would be:
With what version of kawa did those utilities work? (approx. kawa
CVS timestamp would do also).

Against which version?
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/kawa/

Hmm... that's bad. If you had read my bugreport I pointed you to
http://bugs.debian.org/156407 ...
I am constructing free-java-sdk package which brings together
available free tools that are combined to create coherent, robust
and free JAVA_HOME environment.
I'd like to use cp-tools for that.

Can you help me?

> Any more problems, let me know.
I belive it still qualifies as a problem :-/
