Is it not possible to have makefiles for both javac and guavac?  Aaron,
what in your code won't work with javac?

>From the brief notes on the guavac page it looks like Cygnus might be
working toward a gcc-based java compiler.  Does anyone have any more
details on this?

On second thought: Should classpath be providing a written-in-java javac
implementation as well (OK, not right now, but at some point down the
line)?  That would make sense if the Japhar/Classpath master plan is to
fully replace dependencies on Javasoft products. (IMO guavac is good, but
it does suffer from platform constraints more than a pure-java
implementation like javac does.)

Since guavac is already C++, would there be any benefit in trying to
convert it to java?

Open to your flames...
