[Bug java/29414] New: Issues building GNU java on Solaris2.10 X64

Issues building GNU java on Solaris2.10 X64:

Configured to use: GNU as, SUN linker, pthreads, java-awt=xlib

* SUN's /bin/sh is broken... set CONFIGURE_SHELL to /bin/ksh or /bin/bash
* SUN tools like sed, grep, tar, find are also deficit.  Use GNU tools.

* the java build requires a version of jar with GNU extensions. If SUN java is
in the search patch, the SUN jar utility will be selected, which causes the
build to fail.  Since fastjar is built as part of the java build, it should be
used by default.

* The version of boehm-gc shipped with 4.1.1 does not build.

* The version of boehm-gc shipped with the latest gcc-4.2.x SVN code [9oct06]
builds but does not test.

* the current boehm-gc CVS code [bdwgc.cvs.sourceforge.net] builds and tests.
