This is an interesting idea, and having such a launcher would allow us=20=

to do some other nifty things like making derbyTesting.jar executable.

Also, considering the original problem that items that are passed in on=20=

the command line with -cp or -classpath aren't reflected in the=20
classpath of the forked vm running individual tests, it should be=20
possible to modify RunTest's execTestProcess method to pass the=20

actual test.
