I'm going to commit a patch soon that lets you call

    xwt.xmlrpc()

which gives you an XMLRPC object that uses stdin/stdout instead of a
socket (logs go to stderr).

This way you can make "clean" standalone apps by having your
native-code app spawn an xwt process and read XML-RPC requests off
stdin/stdout.  The native-code app has infinite privileges, so it can
do all that nice stuff.  Plus by using stdin/stdout, you don't have to
mess with loopback sockets and the problems that occur when the port
you wanted to use isn't free...

I am VERY interested in this.  Can you send me a patch against the
boehm-gc in the current gcj 3.3 (not hans' private tree)?  This is the
only major obstacle to getting a working darwin-x11 xwt.

Can you post a link?
