I've been corresponding with Laurent de Segur, one of the folks who
are working on blackdown JDK 1.4 for LinuxPPC, and they've apparently
got a port of Hotspot in the works. Nothing is available now
unfortunately, but there is hope on the horizon.

Hello World!
It's pretty easy, and it's free software!
Doesn't help if you've got someone else's .class files. A fast JVM/JIT
would help.
Actually, I believe gcj can compile from class files. I don't know
whether they have it handling AWT yet though...
