Remove config.cache from the target directory and get config.status to
be re-run in the libjava directory.  The problem should go away.

If not, there's some dependence on the patches that already went in
and the ones that are still awaiting for approval :-(

It may be the patch that moved all settings of GCJ from Makefile.am to
configure.in.
