If I understand you correctly, this is a different issue from the one we
were discussing. Tom wanted to change the existing API because he
believed it wasn't implementable in gcj. If I understand you correctly,
you want to add a new API to use in logging, right? Or does Aicas use a
custom version of Class (for example) to relies on this API?

It looks fine, but as long as it isn't needed by shared GNU Classpath
code, it doesn't need to be part of the VM interface (IMO).
