OK, from the list of primary platforms, I have access to:

    * i686-pc-linux-gnu
    * x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
    * powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu

I know powerpc64 breaks in libjava what I plan to fix tomorrow.
Would be possible to test the patch on the remaining platforms and help
me to debug it, please?
    * arm-eabi
    * i386-unknown-freebsd
    * i686-apple-darwin
    * mipsisa64-elf
    * sparc-sun-solaris2.10
