Partially, yes, in that it implements invokedynamic and fast_aldc*
in the bytecode interpreter.  For the sparc or x86 ports you would
also need to write the method handle entries and add frame manager
support for the call_method_handle message.

It passed their previous incarnation in jdk/test/java/dyn, with
this webrev applied to stop the tests disabling themselves:

I started updating my OpenJDK build on Friday to one with the most
recent tests but something failed in langtools and I didn't have
time to figure it out.  (FWIW this was an amd64 build, not Zero).
I'm going to try from a different forest today to see if I can get
a build I can test against.

Cheers,
Gary
