i would be tickled pink to see any sort of android port, especially if
there were JNI bindings :) (about which i know nothing, btw) for Java apps
(i've done one Android app so far and would like to do more).

If i can be of any assistance in helping you get oriented, or portability
fixes for android, or similar, just let me know. i don't foresee any
problems with android, assuming it supports int64 and double. The lib can
be built with customized int types (so it could use 32-bit ints for IDs and
sizes) but it would not work properly (i assume) with massive repos (e.g.
tcl). i have a tablet here i could hack on, but i've never been able to
successfully compile a working binary on android, and eventually gave up
trying. i got some stuff compiling/linking (using tips provided by you,
IIRC) but it would always segfault at startup.
