Might it be an idea to try to have the same directory structure in libgcj
and classpath. In classpath all helper classes are put a gnu.java.package.
See <http://www.gnu.org/software/classpath/doc/hacking.html#SEC13>

If we only put classes that are really gcj specific in gnu.gcj.* and
all other generic helper classes in gnu.java.* then it would be easier
to merge more of libgcj and classpath.

Cheers,
