That may be OK, independently.  But, it doesn't solve the problem.

However, please remove the rules for java/parse.c and
java/parse-scan.c in `gcc_update'.

For example, 

  * I check out fresh from CVS
  * I build the code, which creates parse.c and parse-scan.c
  * I update some time later, and somebody changed parse.y in the meantime

  ==> Uh oh.  `gcc_update' touches `parse.c'.  That isn't the right
      thing -- I'll never see the changes to parse.y.
