<h1>JLex Bugs</h1>
<p>
The following bugs reports are provided to inform users
of known problems with Java-Lex.
These reports are in the form of email messages 
describing the problem encountered.
</p>
<p>
If you have an additional bug report, 
describing a problem not listed in one of these reports,

<strong>Please check your JVM before mailing in a bug report!</strong>
There have been a spate of recent reports which have been traced down
to buggy virtual machines (e.g. <code>kaffe</code>) or compilers 
(e.g. <code>pizza</code>).  Please take a second to check that your bug
can be reproduced using "standard" tools before reporting a bug.
