OK!

Everybody Look here:

http://lark.cc.ku.edu/~pauljohn/Swarm/Swarm-2.2x_RH9.0

see:

hdf5-1.4.5post2-1RH90.i386.rpm

swarm-2.1.147.20030812-2RH9.0.i386.rpm
swarm-gcjswarm-2.1.147.20030812-2RH9.0.i386.rpm
swarm-jdk-2.1.147.20030812-2RH9.0.i386.rpm
swarm-static-2.1.147.20030812-2RH9.0.i386.rpm

Amazing how much smaller swarm-static is with the --enable-onelib turned 
on. It drops from 1.1M to 23k.  Do you think that is a mistake somehow, 
or real?

Thanks for the Windows pre-release, by the way. I appreciate it very much.
