Yeah... do we know what base compiler is being used for FC7? We'll probably have to back-port all the 1.5 stuff to that. Kinda tough before the 23rd considering that we haven't merged it all to GCC mainline yet :( Mark> - Separate libgcj-rpm. This is suspended pending the core/extras merge.

The new javah that is in Classpath will show up when we merge the gcj-eclipse branch to trunk.
