The source code (setpriority()) should work on all POSIX machines, not just
Linux. For the binary distribution, you'll need a library for each
architecture. I don't know if Runtime.load() is smart enough to load libraries
within a JAR.
I've attached a fleshed-out version of the source code posted earlier, complete
with Makefile, for you to play around with. You'll still need to alter parts of
it somewhat to make it fit for freenet, e.g. the library loading code.
