One problem here will be that com.ibm.oti.system.class.path went out 
with VME v3.
In VME v4 we use org.apache.harmony.boot.class.path (see
modules\luni\src\main\native\luni\shared\luniglob.c). Looking at 
Support_Exec, it
appears that this setting is out of date and should be updated with the 
new value.
Does this fix your problem?

Sounds like a good idea - it seems that the workaround to run on the IBM VME
is pretty straightforward, so people will be able to run the tests if 
they want to.
Then when a new VME is out and/or drlvm catches up we can make the tests
"live".
