This is a very interesting problem area that I've spent a lot of time on
in the past.  We've never had the resources ourselves to pursue other
languages
on the Java VM, but other groups have.  In particular, check out
NetCOBOL
at http://www.adtools.com/netcobol/ -- it's a cobol compiler that
generates
Java bytecodes, and it's a real product!
