I'm not sure what Matthias wants to hear.  We're planning to move
VisualVM support out of IcedTea to its own project, so you'd provide
patches for that rather than IcedTea.  It should make things easier
for you I would have thought as you can just use an installed JDK and
not build one to test the Visual VM build.  It also breaks this link
between the version of IcedTea and the version of NetBeans, which
causes problems with updating IcedTea builds on older platforms.
