verified gcc-4.6.4.tar.bz2.sig; imported gcc-4.6.4 source tree from verified upstream tarball. downloading a git-generated archive based on the 'upstream' tag should provide you with a source tree that is binary identical to the one extracted from the above tarball. if you have obtained the source via the command 'git clone', however, do note that line-endings of files in your working directory might differ from line-endings of the respective files in the upstream repository.

+<p>
+The GNU JavaBeans&trade; Activation Framework (JAF) provides a
+<a href="http://www.gnu.org/">Free</a> implementation of the
+JavaBeans&trade; Activation Framework, version 1.1.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+JAF links together beans and internet standards for specifying MIME
+types and how MIME types are processed. It provides a means to associate
+data of a given MIME type with bean actions operating on that data.
+</p>
+
+
+<h4>Important files</h4>
+
+<p>
+Standard <code>mime.types</code> files are parsed by the JAF MIME
+handling classes to work out the MIME types available on the local
+system.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+Standard <code>mailcap</code> files (defined in RFC1524) are parsed by
+mail capability handling classes to work out what beans should be linked
+to what MIME types.
