 State-Changed-Why:
     - This is an ancient PR,
     - we havn't heard back from the reporter,
     - and I agree with Tom that there isn't a problem here:
     
     $ gcj -C B.java
     $ rm B.java
     $ gcj -M C.java 
     C.o : C.java /usr/local/gcc/share/libgcj.zip ./B.class ./A.java
     
     Changes to B's superclass, A, will still cause a rebuild of C
     because gcj -M also reports the dependency on A.java.
