I'm sure one can write a Smalltalk/Java interconnect. There are a number
of ways to do it. What are your requirements? What do you mean by
"native" operation? e.g. VisualAgeForJava?

I'm not sure what you mean. Could you elaborate? Spur is an object
representation and set of garbage collection/memory management facilities.
As such wouldn't it live below any type inferencer?

What exactly do you mean by "Spur's object stack representation"? Do you
mean Spur's object representation, or do you mean the ObjStack datatype?
The latter is merely a segmented stack, like building OrderedCollection
out of a linked list of pages, each page containing up to N elements.
