:>A friend told me that Linux would be "supporting Java in the kernel",
:>which seemed questionable since for licensing reasons it would be
:>impossible to embed the Java run-time into a GNU kernel like Linux (or
:>FreeBSD for that matter)!

The support in the Linux kernel for Java is the same kind of support
for shell script execution by recognizing the #! at the beginning
of the file.  No more.
