It is fact. I did not complete the port yet. boehm-gc and libffi are 
there, even in gcc-4.2.1. But the libjava bits are missing. I do not 
remember what stopped me working on.

I'll have a look and see what is missing. I guess the most headache part 
is the MD_FALLBACK_FRAME_STATE_FOR macro in gcc for proper unwinding 
exceptions.
