If you remove the # that comment out the -m64 multilibs, does it then 
work perfectly?  If so, then, that is the solution to make it work, you 
just won't be able to do java (not that you care).

Also, I do wonder if there was a specs files that is polluting your 
gcc-4.0.0 build, to check that, if you want, you can install in a new 
prefix directory, and then see if it remains working.

Anyway, while this is a regression for you, we meant for gcc-4.0.0 to 
not work for -m64, so I would not expect that it'll work for 4.0.1.   
:-(.

I'm sorry libjava and -m64 didn't get along well enough to turn -m64 
multilibbing on, I tried, but failed.  :-(
