Thanks! I know the instance_eval'ed pattern for executing blocks is 
sometimes considered bad form, but it makes the code look so nice here I 
figured I'd go for it. If you want to use it as a normal API, you can do 
that just as easily; you just have to "start" and "stop" the method body 
yourself:

fb = FileBuilder.build(__FILE__) do
cls = fb.public_class "SimpleLoop"
m = cls.public_static_method "main", void, string[]
m.start
m.aload 0
m.push_int 0
m.aaload
m.label :top
m.dup
m.aprintln
m.goto :top
m.returnvoid
m.stop
