Wolfgang,
    Thanks for the information.  I was afraid it was something of that
nature.  Since Blackdown 1.3 and IBM 1.4 are what's available for
PowerPC right now, I am not able to build this package without altering
DBCP.  The Tomcat 4 source requires the JDK to have some Sun security
classes that IBM does not have.  So, if Arnaud or Stefan could build
tomcat4 with what I have checked in and sponsor an upload, we will
likely have resolved this issue and gotten tomcat4 back into Sarge.

Regards,
