However, the libgcj verifier is written in C++. So, if I were to do
this, it would mean adding some C++ code to the gcj front end.
In case it matters, the C++ code in question is in gcc/libjava/verify.cc.
Regarding the use of C++ in the non-{C,C++} frontends I'm undecided. But
if something like verify.cc gets into bootstrap process, we somewhen need
to speed up the compiler. verify.cc and interpret.cc are two of the most
time suckers in compiling the compiler generally and libjava especially.
I wouldn't like to have this code compiled three times.
