Thank you, but in all fairness, I must point out that it has got
nothing to do with that patch - see libjava/configure.in:
------------------------------- 8< -----------------------------------
# Only use libltdl for native builds.
if test -z "${with_cross_host}"; then
  AC_LIBLTDL_CONVENIENCE
  AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN
...
------------------------------- 8< -----------------------------------

For a crossed-native build, host==target and with_cross_host is
therefore not defined.

However, I do not understand why libltdl should not be built
while building a cross-compiler - the compiled binaries are
ultimately anyway going to run on the target...
