[Sablevm-developer] staging update

[David <db...@cs...>]

Hi,

I moved more changes to SableVM/staging as I am currently attempting
to decrease my diffs with staging...


System with non-.so shared lib naming convention
------------------------------------------------
System independent library naming.
Class libraries had lib + name + .so hard coded.

This name computation has currently been moved to
VMSystem.mapLibraryName native function for now.

So Windows .dll or other name computation should go
to java_lang_VMSystem.c.

Note: This change should ideally be moved out of
      SableVM to Classpath.
Note: As I am writing this email, I am thinking it may
      be done entirely in Java provided that some
      properties to identify the platform.  But then the
      VM has to setup the properties...

Runtime.exec() and Process
--------------------------
* Cleanup and reimplemented Runtime.execInternal only with JNI methods
  as it should
  go to Classpath as a standard Unix fork/exec implementation, no?
* Other Process method impl moved.
* GetObjectArrayElement() implemented.

Fixes
-----
* Added test to see if lt_dlinit is successful.
* Fixed typo in comment.
