That's not the only GNU make dependency in the libjava Makefile.
Search for `GNU make' in libjava/Makefile.am. (There are a couple
that aren't documented; search for $(shell..). The lack of a note is
a bug, since we intended to at least mark them all.)
Some of these we can get rid of with a newer automake.
The tricky one is the command-line length limit problem.
See the libgcj.la target. There's probably a way to fix it, but
nobody has looked.
