It's OK.  Even if there's garbage there, the VM will behave as expected;
it shouldn't segfault, but throw a "class not found" error.  If this
happens in the VM creation (JNI_CreateVM), the function should simply
fail.

Nothing special about it.

At least one thing that works on SF, these days...  The "release"
process, and some mailing-list features are broken, with no known ETA
for the fix.
