Thanks Mike,
It was actually Alan that caught this. Crazy that someone ( at some time
) even thought this was a good idea!

It appears that the only function of librmi is to export the VM function
JVM_LatestUserDefinedLoader. It seems really silly to have a whole native

also used in java.io.ObjectInputStream.
It would make more sense to put an entry point in sun.misc.VM, and have rmi,
ois invoke it. This would completely eliminate the need for librmi.
