I have the JIT working here under AmigaOS. There are a couple of patches
that are generic to the whole m68k tree but I havn't dared downloading the
latest snapshot to diff it since I am afraid of all the autoconf etc. notes
seens on the mailing list.
Also, to get the JVM working under AmigaOS I have created a completely new
thread tree and I am not sure if it fits under the current CVS tree.
