I'd have been surprised if it had worked, but your point about the
documentation is well noted.

Mulgara does a LOT of fancy things, using a great number of Java's
APIs.  It only takes one incompatibility with standard Java to cause a
problem.

It seems that the problem here is all the fancy classpaths.  It
*might* be possible to get it working, but there'd have to be a good
use case before I could take the time to look at it myself.  Feel free
to have a go if you like.  I'm happy to help with
explanations/advice/etc if needed.
