	Okay, I've checked in patches for egcs_update and faq.html
adding to them gcc/java/parse.[ch]. 

However I noticed there is a circular dependency between
gcc/java/parse.[ch].  Here is the output from make:

 > make[3]: Circular parse.h <- parse.c dependency dropped.

	This may cause make to try to rebuild them with bison anyway, if
the dropped dependency is opposite from the order the two files are
touched.  (Was that worded clearly?)

	I'm not sure which dependency should go.
