Yeah, a gcj vtable looks pretty much like the vtable of a C++ class
with only a single superclass.  It is a bit odd in that there are a
couple of vtable slots that don't actually point to methods, but I
think this shouldn't matter to gdb.

If gdb uses C++ RTTI, then that would be a problem, since gcj doesn't
generate the same sort of RTTI information.
