I think the point is that it makes more sense to just precompile your
application with gcj and use libgcj.  Even if patches to make gcj emit
JNI code were finished, I'd question whether we would want to include
them.  It isn't, to my mind, a very fruitful approach for free VMs,
especially given that libgcj already exists -- its only use would be
with non-free VMs.  Also, there would inevitably be an associated
maintenance burden.
