If you're just interested in doing Java stuff(without license hassles), how
about GCJ then? http://gcc.gnu.org/java

It's under the GPL with the libgcc extensions(according to the FAQ). It can
compile Java source programs into Java bytecode or native machine code, so
it seems quite flexible.

I guess the only issue is completeness. I don't think it supports full AWT
yet, though that shouldn't be an issue anyway since VSTa wouldn't be able to
take advantage of it yet(would it?).

I just checked Kaffe's site and the new release boasts preliminary GCJ
integration.
