Is it really that sensible to do that? I mean, up to now porting's really
not much more than writing a dynamic linker.

If you would ask me, I'd rather go for GNU Lightning, which is LGPL, and
has a clean interface. I did not yet play with it, but a friend told me
that it's quite fast, and maybe it's possible to do something Hotspot
like. The downside: Lightning only supports i386, ppc and sparc backends
AFAIK. OTOH this could lead to a synergetic effect.
