Something seems not-quite-right:

$ /usr/local/jython-2.5.2-r7288/bin/jython
cmd started 2011 Fri Apr 22 08:20:53 PM
*sys-package-mgr*: can't create package cache dir,

Jython 2.5.2 (Release_2_5maint:7288, Apr 22 2011, 19:40:21)

>>> type(data)
<type 'java.nio.HeapByteBuffer'>
>>> data[0]
Traceback (most recent call last):

data should be a str with around 100 characters in it, or at least something
that quacks like a str.

Thoughts?
