I don't see a problem here with my build.
I don't think the compiler version will matter.
I think this patch shouldn't be necessary.

GCJVERSION should be set by configure.
There is an AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED for it.
You can look in include/config.h in the libjava build tree to see the
setting it gets.  Mine looks like this:

    /* Define to version of GCJ in use.  */
    #define GCJVERSION "3.1"

PREFIX should be set by Makefile.am.

One way to find out what is going wrong would be to run the
natSystem.cc compilation command with -E.  Then look at the
preprocessed output to see what really happened.  It should be pretty
easy to work backwards from there.
