I meant more to unify JNI argument parsing (in JNI_CreateJavaVM) and
gij argument parsing.
Giving CNI an invocation interface would probably also be good. You
can already cheat and use the functions in prims.cc just like
jvgenmain does (but, of course, rely on it at your own risk, etc).

Nope.

I find "-mx" and "-ms" to be too cryptic for my taste.
Maybe -finitial-heap= and -fmax-heap=?
