That's true. Then again, not everything comes with the right version
of Python, Tcl, etc. What I'm saying is that a thing can be available
in core and depend on libraries that you have to make sure are there
before getting it running.
If it makes any difference, +1 both on PL/J(ava) and PL/Ruby.
On a very closely related note, what's the latest on the integration
of PL/Java and PL/J?
