I don't see why java(.lang) should be a special package. On IKVM trying
to redefine java.lang.Object will throw a ClassFormatError (all classes
are required to extend java.lang.Object), but other than that you can
load whatever classes you want (including java.lang.String, which will
then be a separate type from the real string. (This isn't very useful
because you'll usually get a LinkageError when you try to use it.))
