GCC 3.0 branch: boehm-gc does not work on s390-linux

[Andreas Jaeger]

Bootstrapping GCC 3.0.1pre CVS on S390 I got this error:

/usr/src/packages/BUILD/gcc/obj-s390-suse-linux/gcc/xgcc -B/usr/src/packages/BUILD/gcc/obj-s390-suse-linux/gcc/ -B/opt/experimental/s390-suse-linux/bin/ -B/opt/experimental/s390-suse-linux/lib/ -isystem /opt/experimental/s390-suse-linux/include -DLINUX_THREADS=1 -D_REENTRANT=1 -DSILENT=1 -DNO_SIGNALS=1 -DJAVA_FINALIZATION=1 -DGC_GCJ_SUPPORT=1 -I. -I../../../boehm-gc -I././targ-include -I./../../../boehm-gc/./libc/include -fno-builtin -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -c ../../../boehm-gc/allchblk.c  -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/allchblk.o

make[2]: *** [allchblk.lo] Error 1

I noticed that the trunk has a newer version of boehm-gc that's ported
for S390.  Since I don't think we can do a merge of boehm-gc to the
release branch now, we should leave it the way it is.

Hartmut, Ulrich, can you please tell the status of Java on the GCC 3.0
branch?  Is it supported for S390?

Should we disable gcj completly - or just the broken parts?  I'll
continue testing, and will come up with a tested (!) patch later,

Andreas
