 I'm right now in the middle of using the 5/1 egcs snapshot to build gcc/gcj/libgcj according to the build instructions here:  http://sourceware.cygnus.com/java/build-snapshot.html .  It's still progressing just fine, currently on step #5 (build egcs/gcj).
 
 If encounter problems, any ideas what snapshot to roll back to?
 
 I realize how sensitive the combination of snapshots, bootstrap compilers, and build environment are, so sorry to hassle you and the rest of the GCC/GCJ team.  It's just I really want to use this stuff! ;)
