Yeah, doesn't work from the top-level Makefile though. Need to "cd
i686-linux-foo/libjava" first ;-(

Actually, I noticed that if you do a "make install-data" on libjava's
Makefile, it uses "/usr/bin/install" which is fine. It is only when doing
top-level "make install" that it does the painfully slow "/bib/sh
libgcj/install-sh" stuff.

Unfortunatly its hard to test right now because libgcj isn't building due
to compiler bugs. Again. sigh...
