Oops, sorry I didn't find the original report.

Anyway, the problem here is that the Java scripting site https://scripting.dev.java.net/ explicitly mentions Jython 2.1 as the implementation for Python scripting.

I think an entry in the FAQ would be quite urgent to help people avoid this. I for one wouldn't use a prerelease snapshot without explicitly being told so.

Actually, I am surprised that it doesn't work with Java 6. I was under the impression that one goal of Java 6 was to be more backward compatible than previous releases.
