The Sun kVM probably would be too large to fit any of the current cc65
targets; the web page http://java.sun.com/products/cldc/ says that it
can run in as "little" as 160 kb total memory. The TinyVM Java VM used
in leJOS http://lejos.sourceforge.net/ probably would be a better way to
go. The now out-dated TinyVM homepage at http://tinyvm.sourceforge.net/
states that TinyVM compiles to 10 kb on the H8-based Lego Mindstorms
platform, so it ought to be a better fit.

Brian Bagnall looked into porting a Java VM to the C64 a while ago, but
he doesn't seem to have updated his web page for a while:
