RE: suggested way to structure changes to String, Float, Double

[David P Grove]

Hi,

        I
submitted a patch (#1686) for this about two weeks ago.  The change
to java.lang.String is actually fairly important for Jikes RVM (our implementation
of String.intern is buggy on classpath until this goes in).  Should
I resubmit as two patches to make it easier for someone to apply the important
one?  The changes to Float and Double are nice minor performance improvements
for Jikes RVM, but aren't as critical.

thanks,
