JSR292 backport is alive

[Rémi Forax]

Hi all,
I've finished to code the first part (method handles support) of the JSR
292 backport,
i.e the ability to run method handles and invokedynamic on 1.5/1.6 VMs.

The code is available here:
http://code.google.com/p/jvm-language-runtime/source/browse/#svn/trunk/invokedynamic-backport

By example, the backport is able to run the FastAndSlow example provide
by John and Christian
in their JSR292 Cookbook presentation :
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~jrose/pres/200906-Cookbook.htm

Awesome, especially since I wrote that example code yesterday 10
minutes before the talk!
