Can't build libgcj CVS on DU 4.0

[Alexandre Oliva <aoliva at redhat dot com>]

I'm having trouble building libgcj (CVS) on DU 4.0.

The linker won't find -lgcjdata, even though -L. is present in the
command line.  The problem is that the -L flags appear *after*
%startfile, so they aren't used to search for libgcjdata.

How about naming `libgcjdata.a%s' (or `gcjdata.o%s') explicitly in
startfiles?  The %s will arrange for the file to be searched in all -B
directories.  Then, we just have to add -B./ to the link command, and
we're done.

Well, kind of.  With these tricks, ld does find libgcjdata.a, but it
still fails to link using gcj; a couple of symbols are undefined.  I
wonder if this is the same linker bug that makes it impossible to link
libstdc++.so without including all of libgcc.a with -Wl,-all...
