Hi Gerrit, many thanks for this. Great ! Speaking only for myself, I believe that option (2) would be the appropriate one. It might be nice to include it also back to gcc but I suspect that sablevm developers might prefer to not have that dependency. I'll fetch your patches and test and let you know.
