Oops, didn't see that one.. yes let's only have one, so that
would be the one to get right. Let's try to update it.

The goal for this file should be "the right contents assuming the
VM doesn't have any bugs". If the VM wants its own private version,
that's that particular VM's private business. But we need a version
that we can point to and say "if your VM is based on Classpath and
otherwise does everything correctly then it should definitely pass
all these tests".
