Well, in fact, I had checked in a fix for another, much simpler bug in
dwarf debugging output.  I already suspected there still were other
problems with -gdwarf, but I couldn't get to them :-(

Maybe we should just have completely disabled debugging on
Solaris7/x86...  After all, gdb doesn't work on it either :-)

Meanwhile, the work-around is to set
libjava_cv_gxx_debug_jboolean_bug=yes when running configure...
