Here I see some random passes of FileHandleGcTest.exe, but most time it

Would be great if you have some patches around to review.


Hmm... is your libgcj runtime really multithreaded?  Configuring with
gcc-3.3 sources, I don't get a thread-capable build even with
--enable-threads.  (Which explains how FileHandleGCTest can fail,
given that no FinalizerThread would never run.)

Ok, this is an argument I have to verify but I didn't spend more than --enable-threads=posix. I concentrate right now on libffi unwind info and spend my effort there.
