The concept in the above code is vital to any program that requires run time 
compilation. Important examples include JSP servers and language 
interpreters. However, there are two ways of achieving the same result:
1) Using a custom class loader. This is the approach taken most often today. 
Writing class loaders can be hell though.
2) Simply sticking a .class in the classpath and letting the default class 
loader deal with it.

Which approach violates the JLS? Which approach would work with gcj?
