Hmm. Now that "jvm.hpp" becomes "include/jvm.hpp" it seems like it would make 
sense if the include guard for jvm.hpp reflected the relative file path, like 
most other files. I noticed that its current include guard is `#ifndef 
_JAVASOFT_JVM_H_`. When I search for "javasoft" I get no hits. I guess it isn't 
obvious if we can change it without introducing build issues for users out 
there? So maybe it should remain the way it is anyway.
