I think it would be nice if some Linux distributions started including gcj
compiled versions of some standard desktop tools. Especially for small security
sensitive applications that seems to make lots of sense (no buffer-overrun errors).
It may have to wait for the new, more stable, ABI.
And there's a (not exactly security sensitive) desktop calculator I'd be happy
to volunteer for this model :-) .
