I am interested, yes.  This is IMO an important bug because it will
spoil the initial gcj experience for a lot of people if they're told
that they have to regenerate all their .class files.

Besides, this may not egen be possible: programs other than javac
generate bytecode, and they might not be able to produce miranda
methods at all.
