Yuck -- we've got to find a better way than this.  Eventually I'd like
to get the library splitting stuff from the gui branch into the main
line.  This will be simpler once we have the binary compatibility ABI
stuff in, because at that point I think we won't have to worry about
the linking problem.

The problem being, today you don't need any special options if you
write a program using any set of core APIs, but if we just split the
library immediately, either you would have to or we'd have to link
them all in by default.

I suppose we could do the latter and have a bunch of -l options in
libgcj.spec, and then for embedded systems have `--disable-java-awt'
just drop a `-l'.  If someone wanted to do an experiment like this,
that would be interesting...
