I would suggest to disable gcj completely on the branch, there's simply
too many parts that don't work yet. It doesn't make much sense IMO to
have a partially working gcj in the release -- this will just confuse
people.
However, I'm not familiar enough with the top-level configury to decide
what's the best way to disable gcj; do you have a suggestion?
