That looks very interesting. We'd been wondering if there was some route
from GHC core to Scheme through Bigloo or Kawa to the JVM, but something
more direct is nicer.

Is it easy to create Haskell stubs (in the IO monad, presumably) for
standard Java libraries so that your compiled-to-JVM Haskell code can
easily use the usual Java APIs like Swing? One source of vexation for us
is mapping between Java types and Haskell types.
