Cool. =20

I host a number of Java applications, but they are all straight-up
normal in-the-JVM apps.  I've had horrible experiences trying to host
multiple apps in the same Tomcat instance, for example, which I though
was the whole bleedin point of an application container - deploy and go.
(that and figuring out what is going on inside Tomcat's little mind is
no fun either)

I've never encountered GCJ and didn't realize it produced "real"
binaries.   Are they "real" in the sense that they can be copied to a
machine without a JVM and run or are they "real" like Mono AOT libraries
(which run like binaries but still need the original assembly)?
