Don't you need to run autoconf after you edit configure.in,
and does autoconf need to be the Cygnus maintainer tools version?
I tried re-running with autoconf 2.13 and it did not work. I would
think it would be easier to have a --enable-libgcj flag
than forcing people to hose around in the configure.in file.
Is that possible?
