Yeah. I think my solution is somewhat more elegant, but avoiding 
divergances from Classpath is the overriding concern - ie we'd need to 
make the corresponding change in Classpath's JNI implementation of the 
native parts of Double. That should be a fairly minor change, but I'm ok 
with Tom's approach too if you don't want to do that.
