I believe there is effort under way in the Common VM Interface project 
[1] to javadoc the interface between the VM and libraries. I don't think 
this needs to be part of Dan's work as his change is just eliminating 
the usage of these functions in the java.io code (we need to do the same 
eventually in the java.net code).
