A number of libgcj classes are heavily instrumented with CNI native
methods (for sake of speed/space etc - most notably String and Character
classes). Will gcj switch to classpath ones, or there would be
differences in implementations for some classes ? (not talking about
obvious ones required by porting, like Class or WeakReference)
