The configure switch --enable-version-specific-runtime-libs 
is not honored by java at all, and g77 is not correct too.

Where libgcc and other defaults are installed version specific anyway, with or
without this switch:

usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.2/libgcc.a
usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.2/libgcov.a

it works ok for objc:

usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.2/libobjc.a
usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.2/libobjc.la

ok for c++:

usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.2/libstdc++.a
usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.2/libstdc++.la
usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.2/libsupc++.a
usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.2/libsupc++.la
usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.2/specs

not ok for fortran:

usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/libfrtbegin.a
usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/libg2c.a
usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/libg2c.la

and even worse, not ok for java:
usr/lib/lib-org-w3c-dom.a
usr/lib/lib-org-w3c-dom.la
usr/lib/lib-org-xml-sax.a
usr/lib/lib-org-xml-sax.la
usr/lib/libffi.a
usr/lib/libffi.la
usr/lib/libgcj.a
usr/lib/libgcj.la
usr/lib/libgcj.spec
usr/lib/libiberty.a
