--enable-libgcj-multifile controls how .class files are built; if
used they are all built in a single gcj invocation, otherwise they
are built one at a time.
We could allow different amounts of aggregation other than 0% or
100%; that might help some builds.
But what Per is talking about is how .o files are built. This change
would probably not be very difficult fwiw; we already have done this
in a place or two where we've needed BC ABI support.
