Dalvik JIT compiler for Linux X86 or Mac build

As I heard from the Google IO 2010 session , the Dalvik JIT compiler just supports the ARM processor. Does this mean that my own build of the Android source on Linux X86 or Mac OS X cannot support the JIT compiler?

Should I use any target board with an ARM processor to test the Dalvik JIT compiler?

Thanks!

I myself made sure of this in the Linux emulator. JIT works with WITH_JIT = true build parameter. In addition, JIT is also useful even in emulation mode. Linpack shows about twice as much performance gains when using JIT.

I checked in the last tree of Android source files and there is no x86 codegen. This means that you can only run JIT on ARM hardware.
