Found it.  Ok to install?

+   to use GCJ with some other run-time, or you're going to install it
+   separately, or it just happens not to build on your particular

+   port it; in this case, before modifying the top-level configure.in
+   so that libgcj is enabled by default on this platform, you may use
+   <code>--enable-libgcj</code> to override the default.

    <li> <code>--with-dwarf2</code> -- Specify that the compiler should use DWARF2
    debugging information as the default.</li>
