I think there may be problems in the area of StackTrace and
VMThrowable.  We have VMThrowable in java.lang for Classpath
compatibility, but VMThrowable needs to access
gnu.gcj.runtime.StackTrace.  We could probably cure this with judicous
use of `friend' in native methods.  If you find any problems in this
are you may simply make the errant methods public for the time being.

Andrew.
