When compiling bytecode->native we currently don't statically allocate
arrays. That's because in the bytecode the array initialization looks
like a long series of iastore instructions; we would have to recognize
this specially to turn it into a static array initialization. (This
is something IBM does; one of their papers describes it.) When
compiling from .java the array initialization is represented in a way
that is easier for us to manipulate.
