Please send me the output of `.../libjava/libtool --config' for a
same-host same-target build as when you got the problem.  I suspect
this may be a known bug in libtool, that's probably already been fixed
in mainline.  If it's on alpha or mips, the problem could be related
with libtool's assumption that there's no performance loss from using
pic objects over non-pic ones, an assumption from back when GCC
emitted PIC by default on these platforms, that should probably be
disabled by now.
