The patch (sent earlier, follow the references of this message)
signifcantly changes the meaning of the -CLASSPATH and -classpath
switches. In fact it swaps the 2 switches.
This is important because current GCJ differs from Sun's javac, this
makes life confusing and hard.
Here is the updated Changelog for the patch, thanks to Alexandre for
writing this.
* gcj.texi: Option `--classpath' becomes `--CLASSPATH.'
Option `--CLASSPATH' becomes `--classpath.'
* gjavah.c: Likewise.
* jcf-dump.c: Likewise.
* jcf-spec.c: Likewise.
* lang-options.h: Likewise.
* lang.c: Likewise.
* jcf-path.c: Updated comment.
(jcf_path_classpath_arg): Renamed `jcf_path_CLASSPATH_arg.'
(jcf_path_CLASSPATH_arg): Renamed `jcf_path_classpath_arg.'
* jcf.h (jcf_path_CLASSPATH_arg): Ditto.

Nope. I don't think there's a need for one is there?
If no one objects I will check this in.
