Native apps are working, just not officially supported. I actually had
a native Hello World working on ARM/Android with GDC, however fixing
bugs related to native apps usually isn't high priority on Android.

This bug for example wasn't fixed back then and was a showstopper:

Last time I looked pure native apps couldn't use the GUI though, has
that changed?
