If the 7.5 java api is 100% native java, what are the dependencies that keep it from running within a 64-bit jvm? I understand there are some 32-bit native libraries that are used for backwards compatibility, but is there an option to tell the jvm to not load those native libraries, meaning no backwards compatibility?
