FWIW, I used antlr on regular basis with gcj (and gij).
If I could change one thing about antlr, I would try to make a cleaner
separation between the build- and run-time classes. Right now they are
all in one package. Moving the runtime classes into a different
package, say antlr.runtime, would make life easier for gcj users. Once
done, we could build and use lib-antlr-runtime.so. There's no obvious
way to build nice shared libraries without this separation. You either
put everything into one .so, or you do some thing weird.
BTW - I was looking at how ant uses antlr. It looks like it spawns a
new java process. Why does it do this instead of just loading the
classes and running in-process?

Well, to be clear, these days I just run antlr with "gij" instead of
"java", and then I link native versions of the runtime classes into my
app. Here's the list...
