I did not since my local tree has the patch from http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2003-10/msg02512.html (still awaiting review -- hint hint) which touches the .info files in the 
java directory, When I posted that I was only 99.9% sure that they were not written to the source directory.

Reading the current source as well as bootstraping on a clean checkout proved that your suggestion was correct.

Committed as you suggested with eliminating of java/.cvsignore.
