It's more complicated than that. Originally, classpath and libgcj were
separate and competing, due to licensing inconsistencies. Now those
have been resolved, and a bunch of Classpath code has been merged into
libgcj. There are still classes where libgcj and classpath have
differing imlementations, and it would be useful to pick the best
parts/ideas of each.
