A patch to avoid this error is at:

  http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/java-patches/2005-q1/msg00255.html

Note that the correct way to initialise a 
const float is apparently:

  class Foo
  {
    static const float bar;
  }

  const float ::Foo::bar = 123.456f;

If gcjh were to be modified to generate
code like this in the headers, we get
multiple definition errors from the linker
when two or more files #include the
generated file.
