That's because in "libjava.jni/jni.exp", gcj_jni_test_one()
explicitly adds "-L. -l$main" to the compilation flags
and in "lib/libjava.exp", gcj_invoke() adds "." to
LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
I don't know whether this is an intended shortcut to
avoid having to write System.loadLibrary() calls in the
testcases or whether this is an oversight/bug.
What I don't understand is why the linker would leave
a reference to libpr11951.so even though nothing gets
linked in from there (or does it?) - this can be verified
by an "ldd" on the "a.out" created by adding
"-L. -lpr11951".
