Many thanks for that. I did begin some experimenting with GitHub Actions
in my own fork last night, and it seems promising, but it will be helpful
to have the existing Travis-CI support working while continuing down
that road.

Do you have a verdict on AppVeyor? I think it has an app-based setup
similar to Travis, perhaps with even fewer permissions, according to
Kartik's earlier mail. The current configuration uses AppVeyor for
the Windows MSVC and Windows MinGW-w64 builds.

It was amidst the Windows details in GitHub Actions that I walked away
in exhaustion last night. But Windows details exhaust me on a good day.
Perhaps Kartik will be interested in lending a hand with that part
after the official end of GSoC. We might both welcome a chance to do
some other things and then come back to it, though. Maybe even other
PL/Java things. If the completed AppVeyor configuration were working,
at least the CI coverage he has already achieved would all be in place.
