I'm a Java programmer and I was thinking like one (Culture thing).
The reuse argument is very Strong.

The git-core are ready and it's a very good idea to reuse it. Any change in the core or in the internal representation of git repository will benefit the Git-Java implementation...

I think that a growing utilization of GCJ and ClassPath will contribute to a Gradual Culture Change in the Java Land and promote a beter reutilization among all GCC languages...

Write Once Run Everywhere that GCJ Runs (Sounds Good).
Eclipse will be compiled with GCJ in Fedora 4. Let's see how it works...
Cheers!
