I do system work and want to use kaffe and java for system code.  I =
could use C, but I think it would be interesting to use kaffe.  So for =
example, I was thinking of building a custom loader and linker and also =
including interfaces for devices, assembly language etc.  My design thus =
far is, use kaffe to create .class files, run my system which parses the =
byte code and then create .object files, the object files will then be =
executable.  Ideally I want ELF and binary code.  Is this insane?  Is =
there something out there that does this.  GCJ is too complex.
