I'll be looking at it this week.

It occurred to me today that we might finally have a reason to
implement parts of java.lang.Compiler.  Parts of that API aren't
useful for us at the moment, but we could use Compiler.enable(),
Compiler.disable().

I thought about having Compiler.command() set command line options or
the path to gcj, but those wind up being security holes.

I'd like to use properties here instead of environment variables.
