The simplest way to do it, I suspect, is to enable the OpenJDK runtime to load gcj classes rather than to adapt the OpenJDK class library to gcj. This sounds rather counter-intuitive, but the interface between class library and virtual machine is not at all portable or well-documented, and it is complex. > when I tried GCJ in the past I had problems with incompleteness or > bugs in Classpath, I never had an issue with the way code was > generated.
