Yes, of course.
The other minor problem is current jit code does not construct
proper frame, and when I was in trampoline, gdb can not trace
back.
Rewriting sysdepCallMethod and trampoline codes are on my TODO
list for several months. If you have good alternative codes, I
appreciate it too much.

I agree. And this is the reason why I put modification history
like
* Based on the ports
* by Remi Perrot <r_perrot at mail.club-internet.fr> to m68k/linux
* and
* by Alexandre Oliva <oliva at dcc.unicamp.br> to sparc
in this file. I also spent several minutes why oliva's implementation
works fine for sparc, at the first time.
Anyway, better comment should be needed here. Is a link to the
'sysdepCallMethod document' (you can get it from Kaffe home
page as you know) is enough?
