[Sablevm-developer] More Useful Links

More interesting ideas:

1.  "JAVAB" Is a tool that can take a Java "*.class" file and
automatically detect and exploit implicit loop parallelism in
the bytecode.  This would be really cool, but it has a restrictive
license (i.e., free for non-commercial use).  It's not that big
a loss, since it probably only helps on multi-processor systems.

2.  "SOOT" is a Java optimization framework.  It may or may not
be useful as I haven't spent time to see if it's only used for
Java source code (as opposed to bytecode).

3.  "KIEV" is a Java varient based on Pizza.  It produces standard
Java bytecode as output.  It implements Closures with inner classes.
