sorry, that *was* a bit inflammatory.  I meant something closer to, "VMs
which will execute classpath as compiled to bytecode by sun's java
compiler and jikes" -- which, of course, compile 'boolean.class' as
'Boolean.TYPE'.  GCJ does the compilation of classpath itself, and so it
doesn't ever need to execute classpath as sun's compiler would render it.
C'mon that *does* make GCJ 'different' from the rest of the VMs...
