+Native-Code "ant"
+
+** THIS DOESN'T WORK YET **
+
+Ant takes a long time to start up, mainly because it has to load a
+JVM. If you compile ant to native code using GCJ, it will load much
+more quickly. So far, this only works on Linux.
+
+ mkdir /tmp/ant
+ cd /tmp/ant
+ jar xvf ~/xwt/lib/ant.jar
+ for A in `find * -name \*.properties -or -name \*.txt -or -name \*.mf`
+ do gcj -c --resource $A $A -o $A.o
+ done
+ CLASSPATH= gcj --main=org.apache.tools.ant.Main \
+ `find . -name \*.class -or -name \*.o` -o ant
+ mv ant ~/xwt/ant
