It''s not a good solution, but it''s a solution.

There''s a GCC project to put together a source->native, bytecode->native gcj compiler. Right now the developers say that it''s in an unusable state and that you''d have to get a really old version to get a working setup. However, on a better note, they say that they are planning to release a stable version with the release of the GCC 3.0 suite (which isn''t too far away, could be June or something).

As a sidenote, a good JIT will try to do the same thing you''re wanting.
