I did get it working using Peter's 6.5.2 jar file. I was not setting
the CLASSPATH to be the full file path. I was setting it just to the
directory, which was my fault. Peter's FAQ for jdbc helped me get it
working.

Peter E. sent me a jar file, but it used postgresql as the domain unstead
of org.postgresql, so it seems that is the 6.5.2 version too. Peter's web
site does not have the 7.0 jar file there yet.

However, it seems kaffe can't compile self-referencing java files. I
don't know enough about java to know that is a problem or not.

I did get it working well enough to get my java book example working.
