To clarify

IcedTea still support running on ARM using

Zero ./configure Shark JIT ./configure --enable-shark (stable if used in combination with a bugfixed LLVM) CACAO JIT ./configure --enable-cacao and JamVM JIT ./configure --enable-jamvm

All these combinations runs fine and fast on ARM.

The only part that will be dropped from IcedTea are the handwritten assembler interpreter and thumb2 JIT addon port to be used on top of Zero/Shark.
