Great !!!!

Actually, I've a serious proposal: If you guys manage to fix the 
linuxulator in such a way that it implements the NPTL and the Linux JDK
1.5 works fine on it (I can help testing, debugging and with a bit of
hacking), then I'm willing to write a pretty BSD-Licensed Bug Tracking
system for DragonFly in Java/Postgresql, based on Matt specifications
(assuming it is not toooo much complicated) and import the data from
whatever system you've choosen in the mean time.

(I know about the Native JDK, and I'm willing to help on that front
too, but having the Linux JDK is still essential, because the native
version is always behind - for example, you need 1.5.0_03 for using
NetBeans profiler, and native is still at 1.5.0_00 AFAIK)
