	You can write/develop your code for tomcat for 100% compatibility with gcj.
	Of couse a jdk/ibm one will be incompatible but if you chouse from the start gcj will be ok
very ok in my opinion.
	And thats going on with other proprietary c/c++ versus gnu gcc always need a little workaraund
to get it work from one to other, thats normal.
