If it comes to this, it may be cheaper to just try to fix the bugs in
the gcj verifier and maintain the two versions in parallel.

For instance, the libgcj verifier assumes it can throw an exception
from just about anywhere to indicate a failure.  Porting this to C
would mean a major revamp of all the control throw (or the use of
longjmp, I suppose).
