It's *NOT* the VM interface!  There is a single JNI source code source base,
used by everyone.

So, there is no "SableVM" does it this way, gcj that way, and Kaffe the other.
It has to work also with Sun VM, for example.

AGAIN:  I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT THE VM INTERFACE.  I hope the message is clear!
