So gcj has jvgenmain. You can do the same for other VMs-- generate a
small executable that invokes the main class via JNI. If the app needs
custom properties and/or classpath, they can be compiled in.
No need for a shell wrapper, and you can run `ps -ef' and see your
java applications by name. That's what I would choose.
