Grzegorz, perhaps you could get Etienne to file a bug report for us.


I considered discussing Etienne's other points in detail, but I doubt
this is the appropriate forum.  My only concern is that people not
spread misinformation about gcj and gij: gcj is not only about native
code, it intends to be a complete java environment.  It already
provides quite a bit toward that goal.  Lack of a bytecode interpreter
can't be considered as a reason to avoid gcj.  (Quality of the
interpreter may be, but that is a different sort of discussion.)
