Is there any reason this patch should not be committed at this time
(besides the namespace issue)? I've been using it in my workspace for a
time.
One side effect of importing java.beans is that libgcjawt.so must be
linked into libgcj.so. That might not be desirable due to the
additional size. It might be worth creating a libgcjbeans.so as well.
Incidentally, the Jacl project now builds and runs with this patch, with
only minor modifications. That opens up gcj to a whole new testsuite...
