I just tried to set both gecko and ie8, it doesn't work.
It does work if I tried to set both ie6 and ie8. Yes, GWT generates 1
js file, but it also generates a couple of html files depends on the
user.agent property from the module.gwt.xml.

I know it sounds weird, but I only want to deploy 1 js file and 1 html
file (assume it supports only 1 language) for each application.
