David and Tim,
message received, looks plausible, but I haven't had time to look into it
thus far. I'm rather busy until the end of the year, and my current
funders (Microsoft, believe it or not) do not nominate JNIAST as a
priority.
As I said earlier to David, as well as some testing and integration
work from me, in order for this fix to be usable, it will require
Peter to do his usual round of JNIAST native library building
for all the usual platforms. I know this isn't trivial, but I
don't know how much effort it actually involves or whether Peter
has leisure to devote to it. Peter, are you in a position to
do the necessary builds on demand assuming the sources are
all in place? If so, I'll try to get on this in January.
