Thanks, Kon.

Note that the jni egg currently does not work reliable: if the nursery size
is too big (this is just guessing, BTW), then it might exceed the allocated
stack size of the running thread. Using a small nursery, or using a JVM that
lets you customize the stack max (-Xss or something) can work (did for me
for trivial tests).

Javahack should run quite well, but...well, it's a hack.
