[RFC PATCH] make libgcj_bc prims symbol sizes correct

[Andrew Haley]

This is what I went with.  On all systems which can use libgcj_bc,
Linux/{Free,Net,Open}BSD/Hurd and perhaps few others, USE_LIBGCJ_BC
is set.  In that case, we add

  %{findirect-dispatch:-fPIC}

to libgcj.spec, which causes all BC-compiled programs to be linked PIC.
PIC-compiled executables don't have copy relocs and do not depend on
symbols like _Jv_intClass having any particular size.

Please let me know if this works for you.

Andrew.
