error with old kaffe version

[Matthias Pfisterer]

Hi,

another note for the HACKING file:
I tried to build the CVS of classpath with kjc as compiler and kaffe as 
JVM to execute kjc. When using kaffe 1.0.5, I get the following error:
---

If I use the CVS version of kaffe, this doesn't occur. So I think the 
HACKING file should state that for this compiler/VM combo, kaffe 1.1.3 
is required.
