Thanks Max. I am pretty sure that's the Java 7 'trunk'. What I needed
is a built including the mlvm patches (method handles and invoke
dynamic). An easy way to check is If the 'java.dyn' package is
present.

Anyway, I managed to build it myself. I am not sure I can distribute
these binaries, license wise. I will put together a guide describing
what I did in the following days, just in case.

Cheers,
iulian
