The answer from TAO on this question (that we've raised during our development as well):
Quote:
As well as providing a JVM intent is a platform in its own right. It is possible to write intent software in C/C++ or VP (virtual
processor) assembler that will run unchanged on any platform supported by intent (i.e. it is binary portable).
intent's Runtime.exec() will run intent programs (i.e. software written for the intent virtual processor and compiled by the intent compiler).
intent's Runtime.exec() will NOT run Linux programs.
The best way for your system to get XXX would be to write a small Linux library function in C and call it using JNI.

It will not get you much further, but at least make it a bit clearer.
Edit: you may be able to fork off a process from the C lib and call that using JNI...
