Gump will run whatever tests you enable in your gump targets; they
dont like functional ones that open up security holes, but otherwise
you can do what you want.

Kaffee gump is still fairly raw; there are tweaks being done to ant to
get the bootclasspath stuff working right, and junit itself isnt
building today: http://brutus.apache.org/gump/kaffe/

Dims is trying to get gump to run on that port of java to .net (not
J#, the other one), which will entail more changes to precursor apps,
but will provide even more unusual results.

(ps, I have write access to the gump descriptors if you want something
tweaked on the Xom settings)
