This is not specific to java. You can configure your kernal to run *any*
file as an execuatable. Read the Documentation/binfmt_misc.txt in the kernel
source on your box.
What's better is that you can configure it to use either extension (like on
win) or use the file magic to find the filetype and run it ;) So your
executable need not be a .exe, it can be .xyz and still run :)

Happy Hacking,
Ajay
