This is a nice hack, I like it.

We probably don't want to use the JDWP exception as a marker, in
general... I'd rather not overload it like this.  We can easily add
'gnu.classpath.NotImplementedException' though.

By hand I'm afraid...

Ones that 'throw new Error' are probable stubs.
Sometimes there are methods which legitimately do nothing else; but
those tend to throw something more specific.
