Ok. I'll revise my patch so that gcj uses C++ compatibility on systems
with sufficient assembler support, and the current Java mapping on
other systems. Should some of these other systems gain the necessary
assembler support at some time, gcj would break its ABI (for UCNs).

No, but I think it is true for the majority of platforms on which
people would want to use the feature.
