[PATCH] merge Java contributors into doc/install.texi


This patch merges the GCJ Credits from gcc.gnu.org/java/thanks.html into
the GCC contributors list that is included in the GCC manuals and the
GCC internals manual.  I've combined the descriptions for people who
were in both lists.  Let me know if you'd like to change your entry.
Unless there is opposition, I'll check this in within a couple of days.

Tested with "make info", "make dvi", and by generating and examining
html files.

2002-11-05  Janis Johnson  <janis187@us.ibm.com>

	* doc/contrib.texi: Merge in the list from the Java web pages.
