If you compiled the class files to JDK 1.1.8 specifications they should 
be compatible with the JRE for 1.1.8 but not JRE 1.2.  IOW, you will have 
JDK 1.1.8 classes which contain 1.1.8 bytecode and will require the 
matching JRE to run successfully.  There is no way they will work 
reliably (if at all) under JRE 1.2 or Hotspot until you recompile (javac) 
under JDK 1.2.  If you managed to get classes compiled with 1.1.8 to load 
with JRE1.2 it must be pure luck that the bytecode for some classes is 
compatible, but when you get to hotspot all bets are off.
