Thanks Mandy,
this refactoring would indeed enable Panama library loading to get rid 
of classloader-related restriction which are JNI-based and have little 
to do with the way Panama does things. I'm looking forward to be able to 
use something like this from my side of the fence :-)
Cheers
Maurizio
