Hi, Dalibor!

Yes, about the time I was writing that, I was guessing that whatever
source I'd seen claiming that libgcj was a bundled copy of kaffee must
have been in error.  I've replaced that wording[1] with a more-recent
statement I saw somewhere on the GCJ site, that I hope is more accurate:
It said that GCJ's JRE "was based on GNU Classpath, and modeled after
the standard Sun Java classes".

If I'm still missing the boat, please do let me know.
