Actually, I've already done that (and for String as well). It still
fails some LC3 regression tests, though.
I'm including a tarfile that includes the previous changes and the new
ones.

OK, I think I have something that implements the new overloaded method
resolution scheme ... I'm still working on getting the regression tests
running smoothly, but from command-line testing it seems to work. It's
not the *cleanest* code I've ever done, though: in particular, it has
too many static methods and type-checking code for my tastes. (Hey,
should we spin the type coercion and comparison stuff to some other
module entirely? Right now it's mostly in JavaNativeObject, with the
preference stuff in JavaNativeMethod.) I'm also not sure why some of
this stuff is public, and whether there might be backward-compatibility
problems with what I've done, particularly in repurposing the
COMPARISON_* constants.
Would you guys be kind enough to review this for me? I'm hoping to
check it in once I get an ID, but it wouldn't hurt to have another pair
of eyes or three (pairs, I mean). I've attached a tar/gzip of the
source files I've changed (or added), plus a diff.
Thanks,
Frank

Actually, I have a working implementation complete (attatched), but by all means, feel free to add any functionality you feel
may be missing, or to tweak the code .
Norris,
After I sent I my last e-mail, I noticed some potential issues using Object[] in ListenerCollection.getListeners(Class iface).
I'm attatching a new version, which uses a Vector object. This should resolve those issues.

Rhino SecurityException patch

Sorry if you aren't the right person to submit Rhino patches to.
I couldn't get Rhino to run under JDK1.2 with a SecurityManager installed
(e.g. java -Djava.security.manager=java.lang.SecurityManager). I
understand the JavaAdapter stuff won't work - but I would still like to use
Rhino without that piece.
I've attached a small patch which catches and ignores the
SecurityExceptions so that Rhino can run with a SecurityManager but without
JavaAdapter.

Context.newArray() bug

When the arguments array gets created, its prototype isn't set up
correctly. I think the problem is in Context.newArrayHelper(), which isn't
able to look up the "Array" constructor in the passed-in scope. For this
reaon, top-level scripts that use "arguments.length" don't work.
