bug fixes, cleanup and new features. The major changes are:</p>
<ul>
<li>A new llcj tool to generate shared libraries or executables of Java files.</li>
<li>A rewriting of the JVM C++ codebase to call LLVM garbage collection (GC) intrinsics when it manipulates GC objects. </li>
<li>Cooperative GC and precise stack scanning using the GC framework of LLVM. </li>
