I wanted to test a few specific theories but didn't get that far last night because I hit a problem unrelated to SVN. One thing I'm struggling with is to understand which part of the build system is supposed to compile RunTests, i.e., how/where the Java compiler is being invoked on it. I'm not seeing it in the build logs, though I do see the other Java files being compiled, so that's certainly interesting. Regarding --with-junit= pointing to a junit-X.Y.jar, yes, this option is present, though one of the items on my list of things to check is that it's actually found at that path; and of course I can't check that atm because I nuked the whole setup. :-) I'll reply soon with more useful details. Cheers, Nathan
